This increases the amount of reflux within the stills. Built in 1878 it is owned by Diageo and primarily used for the blended malt Scotch whisky J&B Rare.
This Xtra Old Particular was matured in a single refill hogshead for 21 years. Distilled in January 1997 and bottled in November 2018 at 51.1% abv.
