Single Malt

Precisely 100 bottles of this Secret Speysider join our exclusive Master of Malt collection. Distilled in 1997, this single malt spent 21 years maturing in a sherry butt, and it's laden with layers of cooked apple, dried fruit, sweet baking spice, and buttery barley.

Big juicy apples lead, joined by vibrant barley, plums, and peaches. A touch of new leather nestles beneath, with sweet toffee, vanilla, and oak char.
Soft layers of runny caramel and tickles of sweet baking spice, juicy dried fruits, and honeyed sultanas. Rich oak rests in the depths, with dark toffee, hints of oily, meaty malt, and a touch of root ginger heat.
The spices trail off gently leaving silky sweet butterscotch, cooked apple, buttery barley, and mellow oak for the finish.
I didn't manage to wait until Christmas to open it and boy did it repay my slip. It's lovely, lovely stuff. Smooth and full of flavour, butterscotch, tick, touch of ginger, tick, chocolate, tick. Mmmmm.
I would much like to place some items on a wish list for example the one advertised on this email secret speyside 21 year old. Unfortunately like many ther people I do not use facebook , Twitter, Instagram or any of those social media sites. So you will hopefully appreciate my disappointment.
