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 1968 vintage Bowmore, bottled in the early 2000s by Hart Brothers. The 60s were a time of incredible production from the distillery, with some legendary drams being produced - hopefully this one lives up to the fearsome reputation.
A rather rare single cask bottling of Bowmore 1968 vintage whisky. This cask was specially selected and bottled after 34 years of maturation at just above 40%.
A single casks release of Bowmore which was distilled in 1968. This whisky has been matured for 35 years and bottled by Duncan Taylor at cask strength.
A very special bottling of 20yo Bunnahabhain, created in 1983 from some very old casks to commemorate Bunnahabhain's centenary. Just 600 bottles of this were originally released.
A 37 year old release of Bowmore, distilled in 1968 and bottled at a cask strength of 43.4%. A limited edition bottling that looks to have been the marriage of just 4 or 5 bourbon casks, it's gone down as one of the greats from this golden decade of production.
A single cask release of Ardbeg 1974 for the UK market, this time a mere 132 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 cask-strength release of Ardbeg 1974 for the UK market, bottled in 2006 from a single 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 cask release of 1972 Ardbeg, specially selected for Alambic Classique in Germany. This whisky has been aged for 28 years and bottled by Douglas Laing as part of their Old Malt Cask range.
