Speyburn 15 Years Old single malt released

International Beverage whisky brand Speyburn has added the limited release expression 15 Years Old to its portfolio.

The 15 Years Old is created from spring water from the Granty Burn. This  expression has been matured in American oak and Spanish oak casks.

To coincide with the release of the 15 Years Old, Speyburn has also introduced refreshed packaging. The products are now displayed in robust, premium cartons, each featuring the Speyburn Distillery.

Gillian Gibson, brand manager, International Beverage, says: “We’re excited to release the 15 Years Old expression, with its distinctive rich taste and aroma, we’re sure this spirit will satisfy whisky enthusiasts looking to extend their collection.

“Since 1897, Speyburn has had a long history of working with the natural sources of Speyside, dating back to when our founder John Hopkins first established the distillery after discovering the  Granty Burn. An insistence on using the most traditional methods of production, combined with an innovative and intuitive approach to distilling has resulted in a whisky portfolio packed with taste. This rich heritage is now, more than ever, reflected in the premium packaging and new website, bringing to life a history we are very proud of.”

3,500 cases of the limited release 46% ABV whisky will be available annually, from 13 September from selected independent and specialist retailers with an RRP of £60.
