Crafted by Master Whisky Maker Bob Dalgarno, this expression is a harmonious blend of whiskies aged in 16 different types of Sherry casks, with a high proportion being first-fill, imparting an exquisite richness and depth of flavor. On the palate, it bursts with luscious notes of honeyed raisins, zesty root ginger, and indulgent dark chocolate, creating a perfect symphony of spice and sweetness. The Speyside origins shine through, offering a luxurious and velvety mouthfeel that lingers with each sip, inviting you to savor the complexity and artistry of this exceptional whisky.
