Product description
Hepburn's Choice is a line of whiskies from the Hunter Laing & Company portfolio, with editions signed by Langside Distillers, its subsidiary.
The series is a nod to William Hepburn, the Laing brothers’ maternal grandfather, a diplomat and whisky connoisseur. In September 2020, Hunter Laing changed the graphic design of the series, reserving a specific color for the region from which the release comes. The Glentauchers presented here, distilled in 2010, was aged in refill barrels, then finished in two wine casks. In 2020, their content translated into 581 bottles. Hepburn's Choice editions are most often from single casks and bottled at 46% abv, unchill-filtered and with a natural color.
