Bottle of Whisky

Collectors item

Lochside 1965, 46yr old Highland “Single Blend” 52.3% vol

1 of only 499 bottles (estimated) from cask no. 6778

Adelphi Distillery Limited selects only the finest single casks of Scotch whisky available, a mere 1 in 40 that it tastes, and bottles them unchill-filtered, at natural strength and colour. The nosing panel at Adelphi came across this 46yr old cask of Lochside in August 2011, still in its original Harvey’s Bodega shipping “butt”, and was bowled over by the richness of colour and complexity of flavour.

Official tasting notes will be written once the whisky is in bottle, but the cask sample is showing wonderful notes of dark chocolate, molasses, bitter coffee and dried fruits.

The cask is due to be bottled on Monday 26^th September, and 1 bottle will be reserved for the winner of this auction.

Guide Value £225
