Well-aged Girvan single grain here, independently bottled by the Whisky Illuminati - who are different from the regular Illuminati but both do seem to appreciate cool designs... Anyway, yes, this is a Girvan single grain distilled back in 1989, left to age in a single American oak hogshead until 2019, when it was bottled at cask strength. A release of 233 bottles.
Sugary shortbread and dried fruit - akin to a mince pie! Subtle hints of cedar and quince.
Dates, walnuts and a soft hint of rye bread. Slightly chocolatey at points.
Pecans, toffee and spearmint.
