 Gaelic for journey, Astar is all about the wood. The journey refers to the distance travelled of the white oak artisan casks of the American Ozarks, to the Glenmorangie distillery in Scotland. Only recently released in the U.S., this malt is already exhibiting its star quality. This cask strength dram benefits from a drop of water to express more of its delicious flavors derived from its bourbon cask maturity.
