Further Information

Bottled from a refill ex-bourbon hogshead after more than 18 years of maturation. This unnamed Orkney malt displays a distinctive smoky, mineral-driven character, balanced by the gentle sweetness of stone fruits. The interplay between robust, earthy phenolics and delicate fruit notes illustrates the complexity achievable when boldness and subtlety are held in equilibrium.
