About this Murray McDavid whisky

Glenburgie is a high quality spirit, that one doesn't often see, as it all tends to go into Ballantines. It is a fragrant, sweet, slightly grassy single malt with a lick of oiliness. Independent bottlers like Murray McDavid are about your only bet to try Glenburgie. And, my goodness, how's this for an example?! The whisky matured in a 500 litre sherry butt for 10.5 years, before it was re-racked into a 350 litres first fill sauternes wine cask for a second maturation of 2.5 years. Bottled natural colour, non-chill filtered, at cask strength, this is a must-try.
