- Description
- Glen Elgin's 14-year single-cask sherry maturation has deepened its natural Speyside fruitiness into dark dried-fruit and mahogany tones, with the refill cask adding complexity without overwhelming the spirit's core character. Bottled at robust cask strength of 52.7% ABV, the texture is rich and warming with long spiced oak and dried cherry on the finish. One of 290 bottles, suited to those who value mature sherry-aged Speyside expressions.
