Behind the number 85 lies a distillery that produces a single malt which is particularly popular with master blenders. Long fermentations lasting 80 to 120 hours in larch washbacks and slow distillations in small stills result in a famously rich and deep fruitiness. This truly remarkable Oloroso sherry cask presents intoxicating floral tones, a very refined mouthfeel and an incredibly noble woodiness.
