- Description
- Pittyvaich's 1992 vintage represents a chapter of Scottish whisky history—distilled at a now-demolished Speyside distillery built for Bell's blended whisky. Thirty years in a refill bourbon barrel yielded a restrained, elegant spirit with dried pear, fresh ginger, and marzipan, rounded by cocoa dust on the finish. The extended maturation has mellowed the spirit into a soft, approachable dram without excess oak. A poignant choice for collectors seeking authentic Speyside character from a lost distillery.
