An extremely uncommon launch from Milton, now often called Strathisla, and the oldest distillery in Speyside. This liquid has slumbered for over seven many years in a first-fill sherry puncheon.
This single malt was distilled at Milton (now often called Strathisla), the oldest distillery in Speyside. Distilled in 1949, the expression spent an eye-watering 72 years maturing in a primary fill sherry puncheon earlier than being bottled by Gordon & MacPhail in 2022 at 48.6% abv.
The nostril is stuffed with baked forest fruits, contemporary vanilla, and loads of sherry affect earlier than resulting in an inviting palate with notes of apple pie, vibrant citrus, and caramel. The end is lingering with toffee apple and a delicate trace of smoke.
