- Description
- This Lowland grain from Strathclyde was distilled in August 1990 and spent 30 years in a refill barrel before Douglas Laing bottled it in 2021. The extended maturation in refill wood has allowed the grain character to develop subtle layers without excessive oak dominance. Only 216 bottles were released as part of the Old Particular range. Suited to grain whisky enthusiasts who appreciate restrained cask influence and the pure spirit character.
