Air Leth Speyside 1997 17yo (52,4%)

This 17 years old Speyside from 1997 is one of the releases in the Air Leth series. Air Leth is the newest private label series of Dutch importer Whisky Import Nederland (WIN) and the little brother of the First Cask series. Air Leth is Gaelic for prominent, special or unique  and with this label WIN bottles outstanding whisky's that, for some reason, do not match the First Cask label.

This Speyside single malt was distilled in May 1997 and matured in a refill bourbon cask. It was bottled in September 2014 at 52,4% ABV, non chill filtered and with no added colour.
