Product details
A signature expression from a renowned Speyside house, this 21-year release represents decades of meticulous care and patient maturation. Crafted from a blend of both unpeated and peated elements, it undergoes an extended residency in four distinct types of casks: bourbon, sherry, virgin oak, and Bordeaux red wine. Each cask contributes unique dimensions, and the careful integration of these layers results in a refined, multi-faceted profile. The final creation showcases a harmony of complexity, depth, and elegance, with a balance that reflects both the fruit-driven sweetness of the region and a nuanced woody character.
On the palate, it reveals an opulent medley of orchard fruits intertwined with subtle toasted pine notes. The honeyed undertones are gently accented by a soft, lingering smoke, while the long maturation brings out an intricate layering of flavors that is both rich and delicate. Each sip delivers a seamless balance between sweet, fruity, and lightly smoky elements, culminating in a finish that is sophisticated, rounded, and enduring. This is a layered and elegant expression, perfect for those who appreciate a complex and thoughtfully harmonized profile.
