- Description
- Glen Moray rarely appears at 6 years old, making this independently bottled Battlehill expression a window into the Elgin distillery's pure spirit character before extended aging. The palate carries cereal grain, dried orchard fruit, and a subtle honeyed sweetness typical of the house style, with only light oak influence. Medium body and a clean, malty finish reflect the young age and careful cask selection. Ideal for Speyside enthusiasts who want to taste distillery character unobscured by heavy wood influence.
