Strathmill's first appearance in Diageo's prestigious Special Releases series — a 25-year-old proving the distillery's ability to keep its style light, even after a quarter-century in cask.
Expert's Description
Strathmill 25 Year Old Limited Edition 2014 is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky, matured in refill American oak and bottled at natural cask strength of 52.4% in a run of only 2,700 bottles.
As the distillery's debut in Diageo's Special Releases, the 2014 edition was the lightest in style among that year's selection, underscoring Strathmill's characteristically elegant, lightly cask-influenced profile.
Tasting Notes

Soft malt and citrus meet a delicate vanilla sweetness from the long refill maturation.

Elegant and light with honey, apple and a hint of spice.
