10 year old fire oak
Crafted to delight single malt fans, this toasty, smooth 10-year-old whisky celebrates our fascination for innovating with casks. Always intrigued to unlock new aspects in Glen Moray's character, our craftsmen made up their minds to explore how charring casks more deeply could intensify our whisky's dialogue with the wood, and transform its taste. As they began to experiment, they first aged our whisky in American oak casks for light, vanilla tones. Then they finished this whisky in heavily-charred virgin oak casks. Over 4 to 6 months, the casks took our single malt's classic flavours to new heights, revealing a whisky of intense sweetness, spice and notes of toasty oak.
