Production Method
The finest quality malted barley is distilled in Scotland’s tallest stills, ensuring greater purity of the distillate. The whisky then matures for 10 years in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, selected to impart characteristic vanilla and fruit notes to the final product. This aging process gives the whisky its distinctive smooth and rounded flavor, with notes of vanilla, honey, and citrus.
