- Description
- Inchgower's 17-year-old from 2007 spent nearly five years finishing in a marsala wine hogshead, bringing distinctive sweetness and complexity to this Speyside single malt. The extended wine cask influence adds layers of stone fruit and rich, honeyed notes alongside the distillery's characteristic maritime and slightly oily character. The texture is smooth and viscous, with spice and wine tannins building gradually on the finish. A sophisticated expression for those seeking Speyside refinement with unconventional cask maturation.
