- Description
- A landmark expression from Cameron Bridge, distilled in January 1978 and aged 43 years in a single refill barrel before bottling in 2021. Extended maturation in wood has allowed this Lowland grain to develop deep, concentrated character with the creeping oxidative notes that define truly ancient spirits. With only 200 bottles released, this is a collector's piece for those interested in grain whisky's upper limits.
