- Description
- Distilled at Glenury Royal before its closure, this 1968 whisky aged for 36 years to develop a mouth-coating richness that reveals the distillery's elegant and balanced character. The extended maturation has created depth and complexity that transcends the distillery's relatively modest production footprint. A rare snapshot of a lost Scottish distillery, essential for collectors and those curious about Scotland's closed operations.
