April 24, 2014 by Gary Leave a Comment

Rosebank 15 Year Old / Bot.1980s Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

75cl / 50% / Distillery Bottling – A very rare official bottling of Rosebank, this high-strength 15yo dates from the 1980s (when the distillery was still open) and has a wonderful old-fashioned steely austerity uncharacteristic for such a relatively easy-going spirit. Water reveals a bitter lemon and other tangy citrus notes. A classic of this ‘pure’ style.

Glendullan 1995 / 13 Year Old / Managers' Choice Speyside Whisky

70cl / 58.7% / Distillery Bottling – A 13yo single cask Glendullan bottled at full strength for the Managers’ Choice series.

Interestingly, this is marked as having come from a rejuvenated cask – kudos to Diageo for this extra snippet of clarity.
