North British 13 Years Old [Select Grain / Murray McDavid] Distilled 2011 - Bottled Spring 2025 - Bourbon Hogshead & 1st Fill Murça Port + Spinola PX Cask Finish #2200009 / 2201353 - 601 btl. - 51.7% abv.
Since 1885, North British Distillery has produced the base spirit of choice for master blenders. Rather than put this outstanding liquid into a blend, we present it to you as a single grain whisky that’s been skilfully finished and expertly brought together from a unique combination of casks – the result is simply glorious!
“Following an initial 10 years in traditional hogsheads, we filled this creamy North British into fresh casks from our wood partners, Caves de Murça (Tawny Port) and Ximénez-Spínola (PX Sherry) for three years. The spirit and the influence from the two casks unite to produce a voluptuous dram – a truly Inspired Scotch Whisky.”
