Glenburgie 1984 "Private Collection" G&M, 700ml
The ‘Private Collection’ features a truly exceptional and unique range of greatly aged single malts from a mixture of celebrated, little-known, and now closed distilleries across Scotland.

Only 81 hand-blown crystal decanters have been produced.
One of the earliest to establish itself as a regular producer in the Speyside region, the Glenburgie Distillery first started to produce spirit in 1829. Originally called Kilnflat, the distillery was renamed Glenburgie in 1878 after a period of disuse.
The distillery is located South of the A96 between the town of Forres and Royal Burgh of Elgin, near the village of Alves. Overlooking the Moray Firth, the Glenburgie Distillery is situated within a mile of the sixteenth century Burgie Castle.
For a short time Glenburgie Distillery also produced another single malt, Glencraig. The Glencraig spirit was distilled using the now exceptionally rare Lomond stills and is available in our rare old range.
Nose: Sweet apricot combines with rich lime zest and roasted peanuts. White chocolate aromas give way to bitter lemon and a hint of aged leather.
Palate: Tart citrus flavours lead to toasted oak and cocoa powder. Dried pineapple combines with fresh garden mint and a hint of spicy peppercorns.
Finish: Full and spicy with lingering toasted almonds.
