Experience the pinnacle of whisky craftsmanship with the Macduff 26 Year Old 1997, an extraordinary single malt Scotch whisky bottled by the esteemed independent bottler Murray McDavid as part of their illustrious Mission Gold series. Distilled in 1997 at the Macduff Distillery, located on the scenic eastern coast of the Scottish Highlands, this rare expression embodies the distillery's signature smoothness and rich character. This exceptional whisky has been meticulously matured over 26 years, beginning its journey in traditional oak casks before undergoing a dual finishing process. First, it luxuriates in Oloroso sherry casks, which infuse it with deep notes of dried fruits and nuts. It then receives a final flourish in Pauillac red wine casks from the prestigious Bordeaux region of France, adding layers of dark berries and subtle tannins to its profile. The result is a masterful fusion of flavors that highlight the art of cask maturation.
