- Description
- This 26-year-old blended malt rested in a single bourbon hogshead from 1991 before Murray McDavid's 2018 release, yielding just 495 bottles for The Vatting series. Two-plus decades of maturation in refill wood allowed the spirit to develop subtle, integrated character without heavy oak dominance.
