1978

Cask numbers 49541 and 49542 have been lying gracefully in Warehouse 6 since being filled on September 21st 1978, gently and slowly maturing the precious spirit within. After thirty years, the spirit was moved to the finest First Fill Spanish Oloroso Sherry casks and laid down for a further decade, under the attentive, enduring care of our distillery custodians.

With over forty one years’ patience comes reward. In perfect harmony, aromas of stewed fruits, dark maple syrup and bursts of orange peel and bergamot meet soft flavours of dark chocolate, warming spices and salted caramel before a long, silky finish.
