- Description
- Moon Harbour's Dock 2 stands apart as a single malt made entirely from malted corn rather than barley, matured in Château Rieussec Sauternes casks from Bordeaux's wine country. Bottled without chill filtration or added colour, it retains its natural character and oily mouthfeel. This experimental approach appeals to whisky enthusiasts curious about alternative grain bills and wine cask influence.
