Description
Aultmore's 1990 distillate spent 29 years maturing before Duncan Taylor's 2020 Octave bottling, resulting in a well-integrated single malt that balances Speyside fruitiness with the subtle complexity that only three decades in wood can achieve. This extended maturation rounds the spirit's edges while deepening its colour and developing honeyed oak characteristics. Rare long-aged Aultmore appeals to those seeking mature Speyside with depth and elegance.
