- This Auchroisk matured for 11 years in refill bourbon before a two-year finish in Côte-Rôtie cask, the Burgundy wine wood adding savory depth to the Speyside distillery's spice and cereal character. Gordon & MacPhail's Connoisseurs Choice bottling captures a balanced expression of the distillery.
