A chance to buy bottles of Lagavulin, Talisker, Royal Lochnagar and Singleton you wouldn't normally get.
had the opportunity to taste through them recently and we came away impressed. The distilleries included are Lagavulin, Talisker, Royal Lochnagar and Singleton, and all the whiskies are bottled at cask strength with no chill filtration or color added.Lagavulin 1993 is a 28-year-old whisky bottled at 50.1 percent ABV matured in two casks, one PX/Oloroso sherry seasoned butt and one refill American oak hogshead, with a yield of 642 bottles.
The oldest whisky of the bunch at 40 years of age, Royal Lochnagar 1981 is bottled at 52.5 percent ABV and matured in refill casks and refill American oak hogsheads, with a yield of 1,047 bottles. This is an interesting one, because according to Diageo these barrels were part of an experiment to reduce the angel’s share—or whisky that evaporates during maturation—but placing some type of membrane over them.
Finally, The Singleton of Glen Ord 1987 was matured for 34 years in five refill American oak hogsheads, and bottled at 49.4 percent ABV with a yield of 1,047 bottles. According to Diageo, this is the first 1987 vintage from The Singleton of Glen Ord and these are the last remaining casks. The palate has notes of ginger, cream and spice throughout.
Based on our first impressions, this is a pretty special collection of whiskies, especially the Lagavulin. What makes it notable is that even people familiar with each of these distilleries will find something exciting in trying these aged expressions they wouldn’t get their hands on otherwise.
