- Description
- This 21-year sherry-matured Glenburgie from Douglas Laing's Old Particular series represents a single cask release of rare maturity for the Speyside distillery. Two decades in a sherry butt have built deep dried-fruit, fig, and toffee notes into the spirit's core. The texture is smooth and warming, with a long finish balanced between sweet oak and sherry influence. A collectors' piece for Speyside enthusiasts valuing age and single-cask character.
