- Description
- Cambus, now closed, left behind limited stocks of quality grain spirit, and this 28-year-old example showcases what patient cask time can achieve with Lowland grain. Honey, orchard fruit, and soft oak create a rounded profile, while the extended aging has added subtle complexity and a honeyed warmth to what might otherwise be straightforward grain character. The finish is clean and gently warming, without aggressive oak or harsh alcohol. Best appreciated as a historical footnote to a shuttered distillery by those who value aged grain exploration.
