- Description
- This Strathisla, distilled in 1957 and aged 55 years in a first-fill sherry butt before bottling in 2013, represents the distillery's remarkable capacity for graceful maturation. Decades in sherry cask have layered dried fruit, polished wood, and subtle oxidative complexity into a spirit of considerable depth and refinement. A collector's piece for those with the patience to appreciate how time transforms spirit into something approaching wine.
