About this whisky
  • Cask type: Oak
  • Malt type: Single Cask
  • Region: Lowlands
  • Coloring: No
The North Of Scotland distillery was only in operation for less than a quarter of a century but had made its name by making a very flavoursome grain whisky which at the time had been used in some of the best blends like Chivas and Ballantine’s. In 1980 they closed their gates and the very few casks around are very rare and sought after. This bottling was distilled in 1973 and bottled in 2021, it's only a shame that the long process of maturation also evaporated most of the alcohol and it was bottled with ABV of 25%, So technically not a Whisky anymore. Once opened the aromas of fresh paint, buttered corn and ginger are present, the palate is custard, candy, lemon and cola, with a short finish of caramel, apple and popcorn.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturaly: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from auctions, ballots, and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
