Single Malt Whisky

An old independent bottling of Springbank from Milroy's of London. Distilled in 1965 and bottled after 26 years of maturation.

A distillery bottling of Lagavulin 12 year old from back in the 1970s. Unfortunately other than that we have no details, as the bottle doesn't have a label.

An old bottle of 1966 vintage Auchentoshan. This was bottled sometime in the 1980s and limited to only 120 bottles. The label features a picture of the distillery.

Gordon & Macphail have some good stocks of old Glen Grant to draw on, as shown by this incredible 1950 vintage bottling, released in 2007 at about 57 years old.

The first entry in Diageo's Special Releases series for Brora, a mainstay since 2002. This set the high standard that the releases are now known for and is almost unanimously rated at over 90 points by the Malt Maniacs.

A ridiculously dark and sherried dram from Glenfarclas, distilled in 1957, matured for about 55 years in a sherry hogshead and bottled in 2012 as part of the 10th release of the Family Casks range.

Yet another gem, bottled from the stocks of Gordon & Macphail. This 1937 vintage Strathisla was bottled sometime in the 1970s, making it atleast 30 years old.

Please be advised that this item has a low fill level.

One of the most collectable ever Macallans, bottled in 1996 for the 35th anniversary of the famous satirical magazine Private Eye (still essential reading). The vatting produced 5000 bottles and included one cask from 1961. This special edition is also unique in that it features a superb screenprinted label by the legendary gonzo illustrator Ralph Steadman.

A Gordon & Macphail bottling of 1949 vintage Mortlach. Long aged and richly coloured from spending its life in a sherry cask.

Glen Grant is one of a handful of Speyside distilleries that can handle very extended cask maturation - this Gordon & MacPhail example was aged for nearly sixty years.

A long aged whisky from Gordon & Macphail, distilled at Strathisla back in 1949 just before the distillery was bought and rejuvenated by Chivas Brothers.

A 1949 vintage Glenlivet drawn from the scary end of Gordon & Macphail's well-stocked warehouses. Glenlivet is a spirit that can happily take a lot of aging and this one is a perfect demonstration, having sat in a cask for over 50 years..

An old Ardbeg from the days when they still ran their own on-site maltings. Bottled in 2003 by Douglas Laing for their Platinum Selection range. "Top notch again as expected" according to Serge Valentin on Whisky Fun.

An old cask-strength Ardbeg 1974 bottled from a single cask for the Italian market in 2004.

A single cask release of Ardbeg 1974 for the UK market, this time a mere 141 bottles from a bourbon cask. We are told there are very few old casks left at Ardbeg for this kind of bottling, so this may be one of the last released on these shores.

A single sherry hogshead of Ardbeg 1975 bottled at cask strength for the Italian market in 2002.

A single sherry cask of Ardbeg 1975 bottled for the German market in 2002.
