- Description
- Millburn closed its doors in 1985, making this 25-year-old from 1976 a scarce testament to the closed Highland distillery. Aged in a single cask for a quarter-century, it carries the weight and complexity of extended maturation—rich wood oils, dried fruits, and subtle leather notes characterise the palate. The texture is silky and mature with a dignified, lengthy finish. Essential for collectors of closed distillery bottlings and those exploring Highland whisky heritage.
