- Description
- Glentauchers' 1996 vintage was matured for two decades in a bourbon hogshead, developing the Speyside distillery's characteristic balance of malt sweetness and subtle oak influence. Cask strength bottling at 143 bottles preserves the full spectrum of vanilla, orchard fruit, and gentle grain spice typical of the distillery. The texture is full and warming, with layers that unfold across the palate. Perfect for collectors seeking single-cask Speyside expression from the mid-1990s.
