Producer Description
"We have been looking for some Burnside for a long time. Aswe all know, it is one of William Grant’s filling names that everyone thinks is essentially Balvenie, but we never quite know for sure. What we do know, is that this cask is a full on honey and green fruit bomb. Every inch the classical, matureDufftown Speyside style. Captured at a perfect age andperfect strength, this is a wonderful way to finally tick theBurnside box for Whisky Sponge."
