- Description
- Distilled in 1995 and aged 24 years in refill American oak, this Speyside single malt (likely Craigellachie, judging by the label) was bottled by Thompson Bros. with minimal intervention. A quarter-century of maturation builds complexity and mellowness from a whisky kept deliberately under the radar.
