- Description
- Invergordon's 1988 distillate spent 34 years in a single ex-bourbon cask, emerging as a mature Highland grain whisky bottled by The Vintage Malt Whisky Co. at 41% ABV with just 264 bottles released. Grain whisky of this age develops subtle complexity that rivals many malts, shedding its industrial origins for layers of grain sweetness and oak influence.
