- Description
- Glentauchers, a Speyside distillery known for elegant, understated single malts, spent two decades in refill bourbon casks to create this 20-year-old expression. The extended time in refill wood allows the distillery's natural character of light grain and subtle fruitiness to develop without heavy oak dominance. Bottled at 50.9% ABV with just 178 bottles, it represents the classic Speyside house style—balanced and refined, best enjoyed neat or with a touch of water to open its subtle layers.
