- Description
- Macduff's 2008 distillate matured for six years in a refill hogshead before this 2015 bottling by Langside, capturing the Highland distillery's characteristic fruity and malty profile in a single cask release of 454 bottles. Refill wood allows the spirit's natural character to shine without excessive oak influence, delivering a lighter, more delicate expression than heavily toasted casks would provide. This is an ideal dram for those seeking to understand Macduff's house style without the overlay of new wood.
