This blended Scotch from The Last Drop Distillers is the oldest expression every released by the company. Crafted with at least 60% single malt whiskies, the youngest component was laid down in 1963, a monumental year in the 20th century bearing witness to Martin Luther King’s ‘I have a dream’ speech and the assassination of President John F Kennedy. Matured for the first two decades in sherry butts before a long and slow period of finishing in ex-bourbon wood, this grandee of whisky was finally bottled in 2019 at an age of 56 years. Just 732 bottles have been filled and each one is presented in a handsome case with a 5cl miniature, custom made stopper and luxury tasting book.
The nose has a wealth of floral qualities alongside vanilla and a touch of smoke, before chocolate and spice emerge. The palate brings more of the chocolate and spice, opening up to reveal sweet buttered toast and an exceptional balance, before a satisfying and long-lasting finish.
