Product Details:
This weekend Chris and Andrew competed in their first stage rally together. It's almost 20 years since either of them competed in any Motorsport so they wanted to mark the occasion.
Afterall a dusty old rally can in a shed is one of the reasons they first became friends!
The Speyside stages start in Elgin, so this Glen Elgin seemed like the perfect dram for the moment.
Normally we'd be pretty nervous of 1st fill sherry and delicate Glen Elgin, but this is an Americal Oak sherry cask so it's not as dry and spicy and the balance is really good.
