Description
Port Dundas, the Lowland grain distillery that closed decades ago, left behind this 43-year-old grain spirit distilled in January 1978. Aged entirely in refill wood, it retains the elegant, delicate character typical of quality Scottish grain—grassy, slightly honeyed, with a refined texture that defies the often-overlooked grain category. The finish is long and graceful, without excessive oak influence. A historical rarity for grain enthusiasts and collectors seeking a window into Lowland grain production at its finest.
