- This 33-year-old single grain Scotch from North British matured between 1989 and 2023 in refill wood, a rare longevity for grain whisky that showcases the category's underrated complexity. The result is a whisky with subtle vanilla, honeyed grain, and waxy texture—elegant proof that grain deserves serious consideration.
