GLEN ORD 16 YEAR OLD MANAGER'S DRAM 75CL
HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT

Bottled: 20/06/1991

66.2% ABV / 75cl

The Black Isle distillery of Glen Ord has suffered a bit of an identity crisis over the years. It has produced single malt whisky under a variety of names: Glen Ord, Glenordie, Ordie, Muir of Ord, and (simply) Ord. Today its name plays second fiddle to the Singleton brand, of which it is a part, alongside Glendullan and Dufftown distilleries.
Like Springbank and Roseisle, Glen Ord is one the few distilleries that can satisfy its malting requirements in house. Their use of very lightly peated malt, combined with a distillation process that maximises copper contact, results in a grassy spirit that reveals notes of ginger as it matures in the cask.

 

A condition report is offered as an indication of any issues visible to the naked eye. As none of our staff is a professional conservator or restorer, buyers must satisfy themselves in respect of condition. The condition report does not form part of any contract between McTear's and the buyer, and all lots are offered "as is" in accordance with our Terms of Business available on our website.
