Portrait: What makes the Glen Moray 15 year old special.
The Glen Moray 15 year old is a classic Speyside single malt Scotch whisky produced in the distillery of the same name in Elgin, Scotland. Glen Moray looks back on a long history: The distillery was founded in 1897 and is known for its accessible, artisanally produced whiskies with good value for money. This 15-year-old bottling is part of the "Heritage Range" and stands out for its double cask maturation. The whisky matures in a combination of ex-bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks - a process that gives the bottling additional depth and complexity.
Glen Moray stands for honest, traditional whiskymaking without artificial additives. The 15-year-old version also relies on a balanced cask policy, natural maturation, and the typical Speyside style - accessible, but with character.
The Glen Moray 15-year-old is aimed at both beginners and experienced connoisseurs seeking a mature single malt with solid provenance and clean processing. The distillery enjoys a solid reputation among connoisseurs and impresses with its consistent quality - with this bottling, it proves once again how complex a well-aged Speyside whisky can be.
