  • Producer's Notes

    • Cromdale, Morayshire. Licensed by the Macgregors in 1824 this whisky has a long distinguished history. Back at your request, the whisky in this bottling is pale coloured, with a strong, striking nose which is at odds with the mainly sweet taste. Complicated: a gustatory dialectic in which the antithesis of the taste meets the thesis of the nose to produce a surprisingly satisfying overall sensation.
