Description
Caledonian distillery's grain whisky may be silent now, but this 29-year-old single cask from 1987 speaks to the character of Scottish grain spirits aged without compromise. Matured in a bourbon hogshead through 2016, it carries the typical honeyed sweetness and subtle oak influence that defines well-aged grain, with a clean, approachable palate. The extended maturation adds layers of vanilla and dried fruit complexity. A rare opportunity to taste from a closed distillery's remaining stock, ideal for grain whisky collectors and those curious about Caledonian's legacy.
