About this North Star whisky

North Star Spirits released this vibrant 15-year-old single malt from a Secret Highland distillery, selected by founder Ian Croucher.

Bottled at cask strength (54.3%) with natural colour and no chill filtration, it opens with aromas of tropical fruit, chewy sweets, and vanilla essence.
