This whisky is a single grain expression from the Strathclyde distillery, distilled in 1989 and aged for 30 years. Single grain whiskies are typically made from a mix of grains, including malted barley, and distilled in a continuous still, which often results in a lighter and smoother spirit compared to single malts. This particular bottle is part of the CA Authentic Collection, known for its carefully selected and well-aged whiskies.
Aged for three decades, this whisky has had ample time to develop a complex and mature profile. The long aging process in oak casks imparts deep flavors and a rich character, making it a sophisticated choice for those who appreciate older whiskies. The extended maturation period allows the spirit to mellow and integrate, resulting in a harmonious balance of flavors.
This whisky is ideal for sipping neat to fully appreciate its nuanced profile. Its mature and dignified character makes it a great choice for special occasions or as a thoughtful gift for whisky enthusiasts. The Strathclyde distillery, located in the Lowlands of Scotland, is known for producing high-quality grain whiskies, and this 1989 vintage is a testament to their craftsmanship.
