Incredibly well-aged single grain from the closed Dumbarton distillery, matured in a single refill hogshead. It was distilled in December 1964 and left to age for a massive 51 years! It was then bottled in June 2016 by Douglas Laing for their Xtra Old Particular range, with 162 bottles produced.
NOSE
Big and dulcet - full of subtly sweet spices, spun sugar and honey
PALATE
Now more maple syrup in style with later muscovado sugar and vanilla
FINISH
As sweet as anticipated - sugary, mellifluous with serious cereal tones
