Description

A 16-year-old Speyside single malt from an undisclosed distillery (widely acknowledged to be Macallan), released by Decadent Drinks under their 'The Marketing Malt' series. This expression was matured in a first-fill sherry hogshead and is presented as a satirical commentary on modern whisky branding, featuring a 'Marketing Vortex' on the label.
