- Description
- A 1990s bottling of this 8-year-old Speyside, Glen Spey was emerging from a major reconstruction during this period of transition. At 40% ABV, the spirit displays the fresh, malty character typical of Highland Speyside distilleries, with subtle floral and grain notes. This represents Glen Spey during an interesting chapter in its history, offering a snapshot of the distillery post-reconstruction.
