Description
Strathclyde's 2005 grain whisky aged nine years in a sherry butt, bottled by Douglas Laing at 55.7% ABV, offers a rare glimpse of Lowland grain influenced by sherried wood. The sherry cask brings warmth and richness to what would otherwise be a lean spirit, creating dried fruit and toffee notes unusual in grain whisky. The cask-strength bottling preserves these characteristics without compromise. This appeals to those curious how sherried maturation can elevate an often-overlooked spirit category.
