Cask 88Unfiltered 32-year-old 1989 (Distilled at North British)

This 32-year-old single grain whisky, distilled at North British in 1989, offers a remarkable journey through time. As a single grain whisky, it is crafted primarily from grains other than malted barley, which often results in a lighter and smoother profile compared to single malts. The extended aging process of 32 years has allowed this spirit to develop a complex and mature character, making it a distinguished choice for those who appreciate the nuances of aged whisky.

The whisky is unfiltered, which means it retains more of its natural oils and flavors, providing a richer and more authentic tasting experience. This method of production can result in a slightly cloudy appearance, especially when chilled, but it also ensures that the full depth of flavors is preserved. The long maturation period in oak casks has imparted a deep, rich essence to the whisky, with layers of complexity that unfold with each sip.

For novice whisky drinkers, this bottle offers an excellent opportunity to explore the sophisticated world of aged single grain whisky. The balance of flavors, the smoothness from the grain, and the depth from the extended aging make it a compelling choice. Whether enjoyed neat or with a splash of water, this whisky promises a memorable and refined drinking experience.
