- Description
- Auchroisk's 2008 distillation aged 12 years in a pair of hogsheads before being independently bottled by Signatory in November 2020. The Speyside spirit develops classic characteristics of orchard fruit and cereal grain, with the refill oak allowing the distillery's own flavour profile to dominate without excessive wood influence. The two-cask blend creates a balanced, approachable dram with good depth for its age. Suited to those exploring independent Speyside bottlings and appreciating distillery character over wood dominance.
