Balmenach 26 Year Old, 1999 Vintage - Thompson Bros

£14.00

Fully matured in a refill ex-Bourbon hogshead.  Balmenach uses worm tubs, a very traditional way of condensing the spirit vapour coming off the stills.  Only a handful of distilleries use this piece of equipment, but what it does is contribute to producing a weighty and oily spirit by retaining more sulphur compounds.  Bottled at 46.3%ABV for Thompson Bros’ Mystery Malt Series 5.
