Expert Review
7.5/10A significant step up from the entry-level 10. American oak and Spanish oak casks. Non-chill filtered, 46%. The added sherry cask influence and body transform what was a pleasant budget malt into a genuinely impressive Speyside. Remarkably rich and thick for the price. Charles Doig's 1897 distillery, maturing beautifully.
