- Description
- A landmark expression in grain whisky maturity: Invergordon's 1964 distillate spent over 52 years in a single refill barrel, creating one of the oldest grain whiskies ever bottled. The extended aging in refill wood allows the spirit's original character to shine without overwhelming oak influence, offering a rare window into how grain whisky develops across decades. At 236 bottles from Douglas Laing's Xtra Old Particular range, this is for serious collectors of aged spirits.
