- Description
- Glenury Royal's rare 1980s bottling preserves spirit from a now-demolished Highland distillery, aged 12 years at 40% ABV. The distillery's clean, delicate character has developed subtle oak influence and a refined, understated profile over the decades. A vanished distillery's fingerprint, captured in its maturity. Essential for Highland whisky historians and collectors seeking authentic closed-distillery examples.
