Description

A 2009 vintage single grain from North British, aged for a total of 16 years, including a finish in a ruby Port octave cask (#5946673). The small cask finish pushes fruit and sweetness forward, giving it a dessert-leaning profile with plenty of richness. It also qualifies it to become part of The Octave series from the fantastic Duncan Taylor.
