Detailed Description
A dark and rich whisky from Glenglassaugh, released in late 2017 as part of the third release of single casks from the distillery, and the first selected by master blender Rachel Barrie. Distilled in 1975 and matured for 41 years in a Sauternes hogshead, it’s softly spicy with dried orchard fruit notes. And apricots. All the apricots.
