- Description
- A remarkable survivor: this Glenmorangie 1993 aged for 12 years in Swamp Oak before its entire consignment was lost in transit to America, then recovered and released in 2005. The swamp oak imparts a distinctive character rarely encountered in Scottish whisky, making this a true oddity for collectors.
