DISTILLERY INFO
Founded 1899. Designed by doyen of distillery designers, Charles Doig.
The last distillery to be built on Speyside for sixty years. Powered by water until 1950.
A natural place: house martins nest here and swoop among the traditional worm tubs.
Only available as a single malt since 1960s. A 12 year old has been more widely available since 2002.
Previous releases in this series were a 16 year old distilled in 1991 and released in 2008, and a 32 year old distilled in 1971, which was released in 2003. Tangerine fruitiness, the make?s ?signature?, derives from long, slow fermentation

TASTING NOTES
A distinguished example of a Top Class rated malt with a highly sophisticated, classic Speyside taste; a fresh, yet voluptuous aroma and layers of fruit make this an enticing dram, with well balanced oak providing just enough spice.

? From two batches using different yeasts and cask finishes
? 5,352 individually numbered bottles worldwide.
