Sirius 31 Year Old - North Star Spirits 70cl Whisky
Sirius 31 Year Old - North Star Spirits
Another astronomy-inspired blended malt from North Star Spirits here - this time, they've named an expression after Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, and sometimes known as the Dog Star because it can bark and fetch sticks of its importance in the Canis Major constellation. The whisky itself is 31 years old, and was drawn from first-fill bourbon casks in 2019. A release of 3582 bottles.
