The Mossburn Vintage Casks range are a collection of Single Malt Scotch Whiskies each issuing from a strictly limited and select batch of casks from some of Scotland's most destinguished distilleries.

Each numbered release will only ever yield a finite number of bottles.

Aged for 10 years in a refill Hogshead.
Distilled 2007 Bottled 30/11/2017 without any colouring or chill filtration.
Classic Craigellachie, Speyside with a much more oily, aromatic and floral citrus style.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden amber with a sunlit, honeyed glow.
Nose
Quince jelly and waxy orchard fruits unfold with fresh barley and wet straw, brightened by lemon icing. Toasted almonds lend warmth, while white marshmallow and a sherbet lift impart a lilting, confectionary edge.
Palate
Malted milk biscuits and lovehearts form a comforting base, with parma violets lending a floral lift, lemon bonbons brightening the palate, and sugared almonds weaving through a herbal-mineral body.
Finish
Peppery, oily and malty, finishing with a sweet-shop pick‑and‑mix fizz, waxy lemon and barley sweetness, and lingering floral Parma violet notes.
