Black Bottle - Standard 70cl Bottle

Black Bottle – Standard 70cl Bottle
Country: Scotland   Region: 
Summary: The Island of Islay is renowned all over the world for its intensely powerful and charismatic Scotch whiskies. Black Bottle is totally unique in being created from whiskies from all seven of the famous distilleries on Islay. Its spiritual home is the Bunnahabhain distillery in the north-east of the Island. Black Bottle was created in 1879 by Gordon Graham and Co. based in Aberdeen. The three Graham brothers – (Charles Innes, Gordon and David) original business was tea but they switched their attention to whisky blending. Soon the popularity of the whisky spread through the East Coast fishermen who favoured it on long sea journeys. Black Bottle's name came from its original bottle design based on black German glass and echoing the traditional pot whisky still. In 1914, following the outbreak of war, production was switched to green glass as it is to be found today. Black Bottle has long been regarded as one of the smoothest and most balanced of the Scotch Whiskies. The skilful craft of blending only the finest malt and grain whiskies delivers a wonderfully balanced and whisky experience. Fresh and fruity on the nose it combines full, honeyed and delightfully smoky flavours that set it apart. The tasting experience is rounded off with a long and warming finish.

Master Of Malt Releases World’s Oldest Whisky Liqueur

May 4, 2011 by Gary Leave a Comment

Master of Malt Launch the World’s Oldest Whisky Liqueur

Master of Malt Launch the World’s Oldest Whisky Liqueur

Online Retailer and Independent Bottler, Master of Malt, has launched the world’s oldest whisky liqueur.
It is based on the very finest 40 year old single malt Speyside whisky from one of Scotland’s most legendary distilleries!

The 40 year old single malt at the heart of this liqueur hails from a Speyside distillery, and whilst the exact origins remain a closely guarded secret, it is reputed to be one of the world’s most famous, and one known for its rich, sherry-matured whiskies.

“The key part for us was that the whisky shone through,” says Master of Malt’s Sales Director Ben Ellefsen, “this is a liqueur for single malt connoisseurs, so we spent an incredible amount of time picking subtle flavours which highlighted the malt, rather than creating something that was just sweet and overpowering. We’ve used top quality, authentic ingredients including cinnamon bark, cloves and orange peel, and we couldn’t be more proud of the results.”

The 40 year old joins Master of Malt’s range of single malt Speyside whisky liqueurs and the prices range from £26.95 for the 10 year old, up to £219.95 for the 40 year old.

The Liqueurs
Master of Malt 10 Year Old Speyside Whisky Liqueur – £26.95
Master of Malt 15 Year Old Speyside Whisky Liqueur – £39.95
Master of Malt 21 Year Old Speyside Whisky Liqueur – £59.95
Master of Malt 30 Year Old Speyside Whisky Liqueur – £109.95
Master of Malt 40 Year Old Speyside Whisky Liqueur – £219.95

Or you can get a Tasting Set of all 5 – £29.95
