Expert Review

8/10

Distilled at Oldmeldrum near Aberdeen since 1797 — one of Scotland's oldest operating distilleries and its most easterly Highland malt. Mix of bourbon and sherry casks. Bottled at a robust 48% — non-chill-filtered character at an accessible price. Bold, characterful, well-priced.
