- Description
- A 2008 vintage from Speyside's Strathisla, one of the Highlands' oldest active distilleries, this single malt spent 10 years maturing in a pair of bourbon barrels before bottling by Signatory in March 2019. Bourbon cask maturation imparts vanilla, honey, and light orchard fruit character typical of Strathisla's distillery profile, with the wood providing subtle spice and a gentle sweetness. At 46% ABV and non-chill filtered, the whisky retains its natural texture and delicate balance. A straightforward, well-crafted Speyside for those who appreciate distillery character without heavy cask intervention.
