It is matured first in India where because of its climate the Angel’s share is as much as 12% of the original volume. It then spends several years in Scotland or other undisclosed region in Europe to finish. This distillate is of a limited release with all bottles numbered. Only 360 bottles (mine is numbered 321) were sent to the USA with 900 going to Europe. M rating: 4Ms MMMM’s Cost: __$100 __ Dominick M. Maino, reviewer
