GIFT SUBSCRIPTION (1 YEAR) WITH OLD AND RARE SCOTCH WHISKY

Overview

A beautifully-presented whisky gift subscription delivered to your door - we send 4 sets throughout the year (every 3 months), each containing 5 single malt / artisan whiskies, complete with individual tasting cards and a whisky tasting mat - the perfect place to arrange your whisky tasting and to record your own personal notes.

The first whisky set is our Old and Rare Scotch whisky gift set which contains Scotch whiskies up to 50 years old plus single cask varieties (the most premium form of whisky) and cask strength varieties.  Thereafter the whiskies in this whisky subscription are up to 12 years old, mostly from Scotland, and include some out-of-the-ordinary varieties from independent distilleries. 

The whiskies are typically Scottish single malt and single grain whiskies plus the occasional world whisky or artisan blend.Personalised 1st Whisky set

The first tasting set is beautifully presented in a luxury hand finished gift box, and the price includes personalisation of your first whisky set (see image).

The 1st whisky set contains the following, or similar, whiskies:

• Invergordon aged 50 years (46.3% ABV) *: A rare 50 year old from the sole grain distillery in the Highlands of Scotland, matured in just a single oak cask for over five decades.  This perfectly matured Scotch whisky has aromas of fresh vanilla pods, toasted coconut, honeycomb, and gentle oak.  The palate provides baked apple, tropical fruits, crème brûlée, orchard fruit, and warming spices, followed by a long and lingering sweet oak, buttery pastry, citrus peel, and soft caramel finish.  A special whisky for a special occasion.
  
• Cragganmore aged 27 years (53% ABV) *: A rare single cask from Cragganmore, the distillery selected as the Speyside representative by Diageo as part of their Classic Malts series.  Cragganmore is one of the most complex and muitil-layered Speyside whiskies in Scotland, and this superb example is has been matured in just a single oak cask for over 27 years.
• Port Dundas aged 35 years (45% ABV) *: Port Dundas is one of Scotland's long-lost or 'ghost' distilleries that sadly closed for commercial reasons in 2011 after 200 years of operation.  This very old and rare example, drawn from just a single oak cask, provides a special opportunity to reflect on and appreciate some of Scotland's lost whisky making.
• Speyburn aged 18 years (40% ABV): matured in American and Spanish oak casks, offering a complex profile of rich toffee, toasted nuts and tropical fruits with a gentle, smoky finish. It is highly regarded for its balance of sweet, creamy notes, subtle oak spice, and a slightly bitter, cocoa-like edge.
• Glen Scotia Victoriana (Cask Strength 54.2% ABV): This Campbeltown malt is selected from the distillery's older 'reserve' casks and is renowned for a rich and complex profile that has been  finished in heavily charred oak and Pedro Ximénez sherry butts.
  

* Drawn from a single cask
