- Description
- Glen Moray's 1971 vintage was held in wood for 28 years before the distillery bottled it in 1999, capturing a snapshot of Speyside whisky from an era of different production methods and spirit character. After nearly three decades of maturation, the spirit should display mature dried fruit, honey, and oak integration characteristic of well-aged Speyside, though specific cask type influences the final profile. The vintage year and extended aging make this a historical bottling rather than current production. A collectible example of Scottish whisky from the 1970s.
