Invergordon 16 Year Old 2003 A.D. Rattray
Invergordon 16 Year Old 2003 A.D. Rattray. This is a single grain whisky from one of Scotland`s only six dedicated grain distilleries. Invergordon is also by far the most northerly of these, up on the Cromarty Firth, while the others cluster around the Lowlands. In Scotland, by law, grain whisky is made from a blend of barley (as in malt whisky) and another grain (usually corn). When we say it is a single grain, that means it is from only one distillery. Grain whiskies tend to be richer and sweeter than their malt counterparts, and often have a flavour profile close to bourbon. This is certainly a rich, deep and complex spirit, a proper tropical baritone, with dark rum, banana and demerara all on show.
