Description
Coleburn's 1980 vintage, aged 20 years in sherry oak and bottled at cask strength by Douglas Laing, delivers the rich, full character of Speyside whisky in its mature form. Deep copper colour and concentrated aromas precede a palate of dried fruit, spice, and baking chocolate, with the sherry cask adding richness without overwhelming the distillery character. The texture is full and warming at 50% ABV, with a long, drying finish. A benchmark example of Speyside aged properly in quality sherry wood, suited to evening sipping or serious study.
