 A limited edition that is rich in peat and smoke with beautiful tones and notes. Distilled in 1978, bottled in 2009 and there are only 1320 pieces of this bottled distillate.

A handsomely-presented 30yo from the revitalised-with-a-new-packaging-design Glen Garioch - it`s great that they`re finally getting a bit of marketing attention.



 

I like my whisky old and my women young!
