Description
Millburn distillery was originally know as ‘Inverness distillery’ and was mothballed in 1985. In 1988, it was destroyed and the site now houses a restaurant. There was an original bottling in the Rare Malts series, and a few releases from independent bottlers. This Millburn 1976 is from a refill sherry butt.
Bottled at 46% abv

Palate: Malty start. Very spicy and peppery development, rather hot. Some peat smoke. Dry walnuts. Charred oak.
Finish: Baking spices beginning with nutmeg and finishing with cloves and sherry wood
