2004 Adelphi Glen Ord 12 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

An indie expression distilled in 2004 and bottled twelve years later in 2017 after maturation in a single refill Spanish oak sherry cask. 242 bottles on offer.

Glen Ord is situated south of Inverness at Muir of Ord, (which means moor next to the hill). The distillery was founded in 1838, although it is widely believed that distilling took place on this site long before this time. In 1961 the floor maltings were converted into a Saladin Box malting (similar to the one still in operation at Tamdhu) and this supplied the malt for the distillery until they were decommissioned in 1984. The mechanical maltings that had been built at Muir of Ord in 1964 to supply the group's other distilleries, then took on the role. Older bottlings of Glen Ord are sometimes bottled as 'Glenordie', 'Ordie' or 'Ord'.
