A'glac Charrann "by Secret Speyside" 27 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

99.6 Proof, 700 ml, American Oak barrels

This is the highest "age statement" release ever from this now closed distillery.

This 27 year old single malt from the Imperial distillery has been matured in American oak barrels, bottled at cask strength and without chill-filtration. Incredibly sweet on the nose combining aromas of ripe pear, honey, vanilla custard and cherry jam. Fruity flavour notes intensify on the palate with hints of red apple, blackcurrants and orange chocolate, intermingled with hazelnut and lemon drizzle. The finish is sweet and gently spiced.

IMPERIAL DISTILLERY
In the hamlet of Carrann, amongst lush pine tree forests, stood the Imperial distillery. A grand opening in 1897; with turbulent times ahead. Beset by misfortune, the distillery was opened then closed time and again; finally taking its last breath in 1998. Once closed, thieves smashed its stills and stole the copper. But luckily, a treasure of gilded barrels was left behind. While maturing, the whisky developed a surprising and distinctive character of orchard fruits and honey malt.
