When visiting the distillery shortly after it opened, I was under the impression that this range was only going to be available at the visitor centre itself. So, maybe it was originally produced with a certain customer in mind? #TheCairnDistillery

The 12 y/o and 18 y/o are great value for money. The 30 y/o, although still very good, lacked a certain something for me. The 25 y/o is a belter of a dram #TheCairnDistillery

Possibly. It does feel as though the sherry cask influence is less on this one #TheCairnDistillery

There are a few 30+ year old blended malts out there. Not all at this excellent price point though ð#TheCairnDistillery

Definitely those musty notes akin to some of the old blends I'm used to drinking #TheCairnDistillery

Dram 1 has notes of apple and blackberry crumble with vanilla ice cream. Actually, I reckon this would pair well with that ð
