- Description
- Strathclyde's rare 27-year-old single grain was distilled in 1990 and matured in a bourbon barrel before bottling as one of 250 bottles in The Higginbottom Revival series. Grain whisky's lighter, more delicate character has developed subtle oak vanilla and gentle cereal sweetness across nearly three decades of maturation. The texture is refined despite the distillery category, with a clean, fading finish. An exceptional opportunity for grain whisky enthusiasts seeking extended age and rarity.
