Auchroisk 10 Years Discovery – Gordon & MacPhail 70 cl. 43%
Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Auchroisk 10 Years Discovery from Gordon & MacPhail is a classic Speyside single malt, bottled as part of the Discovery range, which is designed as an easy introduction to different flavour profiles. Here you get a full-bodied, fruit-driven whisky with clear notes of sweet malt, dried fruit and spicy oak – a real “comfort dram” that both newcomers and experienced whisky drinkers can appreciate.
Auchroisk is known for a clean, fruity style, and in the Discovery edition it is wrapped in warm cask notes that add extra depth without becoming heavy.
