About this whisky
- Malt type: Blended
- Region: Scotland
This historic bottling of Highland Queen blended Scotch whisky, dating between the 1930s and 1960s, represents a fascinating piece of whisky heritage, featuring a unique blend from two prestigious Speyside distilleries: Glen Moray and Glenlivet. Bottled at the traditional British 70 proof (equivalent to 40% ABV), this generous half-gallon (1.89 litre) bottle with its original cork closure showcases the historical approach to whisky production and bottling from this era.
What makes this expression particularly interesting is its transparent "Your Guarantee" declaration on the label, explicitly stating the source of its components - a level of disclosure that was uncommon for its time. This Highland Queen bottling offers collectors and enthusiasts a glimpse into the past of Scotch whisky production, when Glen Moray and Glenlivet's spirits were united under this regal brand name, with its simple cork closure typical of the period's bottling practices.
