- Description
- Glen Spey's 2010 distillate underwent initial maturation in American oak before finishing in a Calvados cask, creating an uncommon profile within Speyside's usual orchard-fruit framework. The brandy cask finish would contribute apple and stone fruit complexity alongside the expected spice and vanilla notes. Ideal for whisky drinkers seeking to explore beyond standard cask finishes.
