The Whisky Exchange	Old Parr / Summer Blended Scotch Whisky Country: Scotland   Region:  Age:    Strength: 43% Summary: 50cl / 43% – Part of a series of seasonal-themed blends from Old Parr, Summer is immodestly subtitled 'Fulfilment', which we'd like to point out (in the interests of staying on the right side of the trades descriptions act) is, for a bottle of whisky, a pleasant aspiration rather than a guaranteed outcome.	50cl	£ 49.95  BUY NOW

The Whisky Exchange	Clynelish 12 Year Old / Bot.1980s Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky Country: Scotland   Region: Highland Age: 12 Year Old   Strength: 40% Vintage: 1980   Bottler:  Summary: 75cl / 40% / Distillery Bottling – A bottling of 12 year old Clynelish by the distillery, most probably from the early 1980s – about the time that sister distillery Brora closed, leaving Clynelish as sole distiller on the site.	75cl	£ 599.00  BUY NOW
The Whisky Exchange	Haig Gold Label / Bot.1970s Blended Scotch Whisky Country: Scotland   Region:  Age:    Strength: 40% Vintage: 1970   Bottler:  Summary: 75cl / 40% – An old bottling of Haig Gold label. John Haig & Co claim to be the oldest Scotch Whisky distillers in the world, and with a history dating back to at least the 17th century, they're probably not wrong. We estimate this bottle dates from the 1970s and is rather a cute little shape.	75cl	£ 69.95  BUY NOW
