of Glen Ord 17 Year Old (700 ml) (F26 Special Releases 2025)

Glen Ord distillery sits on the Black Isle in the Scottish Highlands, where peaty water sources and maritime influence shape spirit character from the outset. This 17-year expression matures in ex-bourbon casks, allowing the spirit's natural honey and orchard-fruit profile to develop without heavy oak overlay. The extended aging permits integration of subtle wood spice and a gentle warming finish. Singleton bottlings from Glen Ord are known for their approachability and balance—this release represents the house style at full maturity, where distillery character remains legible beneath measured oak influence. Bottled at standard strength (40% ABV), the 2025 release maintains consistency with the core range while offering the depth expected of a 17-year statement.
