- Description
- Filliers' Goldlys represents Belgium's first double-still grain whisky, made with both malt barley and selected grains through pot and column distillation, then finished in Amontillado casks after 12 years of maturation. The Amontillado cask finish introduces dry, savoury complexity with hazelnut and dried fruit notes that complement the grain whisky's lighter, cleaner spirit character. This inaugural release appeals to those exploring grain whisky beyond established Scotch and Irish traditions.
