Duncan Taylor Rare Auld Grain Strathclyde 1990 28 Year Old Scotch Whisky Cask #642756 51.2% ABV 750mL

1990 Strathclyde 28 Year Old Single Grain Scotch Whisky

Strathclyde Distillery was built in 1927 on the site of an old cotton mill to produce natural grain spirit for gin, only entering the whisky making industry in 1936. Today it is Glasgow's only grain distillery producing grain whisky for big brand blends.  ere are no o cial distillery bottlings, so it falls to independent bottlers to release these lesser known gems in to the market. Strathclyde was also home to the Kinclaith malt distillery from 1957 to 1975.

TASTING NOTES:
Nose: Waxy citrus peel, vanilla custard, whipped cream, tropical fruit salad and cafe au lait.
Taste: Oily, salted caramel ice cream, fruit syrup, sweet tangerine, but not over sweet. Soft oak shows its age.
Finish: Clean and balanced, warming, drier than palate, fades to gentle carousing aftertaste.
