- Description
- Sideburn's 1994 & 1996 release is a blended whisky composed of two refill hogsheads from a William Grant & Sons distillery, with a touch of another single malt, bottled at 53% ABV. Nearly three decades of aging in refill wood has developed a mature, rounded character with the subtle integration typical of long maturation without excessive oak influence. This suits whisky drinkers seeking aged refinement and the complexity that comes from patient wood contact.
