"""the Last Great Malts of Scotland"" Scotch whiskey collection

Consists of aged whiskies from Aberfeldy, Aultmore, Craigellachie, The Deveron and Royal Brackla.

Unless you really know your Scottish whiskey you likely haven't heard too much of these operations,
Aberfeldy, known as the "Golden Dram," draws its water from the Pitilie Burn. Pure and fresh, its waters are famed for containing deposits of alluvial gold. The dram is much admired for its honey notes, displaying a classic Central Highland style rarely tasted in single malts today. Named "Highland Whisky of the Year 2014" by Whisky Magazine. Included in this collection are Aberfeldy 12-year-old and a 21-year-old.
Aultmore is a rare Speyside malt known locally as "a nip of the Buckie Road." The distillery's water filters down through the misty, mysterious area called the Foggie Moss. AULTMORE is rated top-class and is a dram sought after for its gentle grassy notes. Aultmore is a rare Speyside favorite of the locals and Buckie Fishermen. Offered in this collection are Aultmore 12 year and 18 year.
Craigellachie has released a portfolio of single malts for the first time in history. The distillery stays true to its traditions of whisky-making, including the use of worm tubs - so called for their coiled copper tubing - to cool the spirit. A challenging Speyside whisky, it was described as "old-fashioned" even in 1891 as it makes no concessions to modern-day trends. Single malt fans appreciate Craigellachie for its remarkable sulphuric, savoury, meaty character. CRAIGELLACHIE scotch included in this collection are 13 year old and 17 year old.
The Deveron, made where the River Deveron meets the open seas. Offering "calm from the storm," it's the perfect fireside malt. Soft fruity notes combine with an easy drinking style to make The Deveron a favorite with the work force of the distillery. Offered in this collection are the 12 and 18 year old offerings.
Royal Brackla is a truly regal malt. Founded in 1812, in the northern Highlands, it hails from the first distillery bestowed with a royal warrant and has since been lauded as "The King's Own Whisky." Heavily sherried, rich, fruity and full, Royal Brackla is a fine dram to savour as it slowly reveals its complexity. This collection will contain 12-year-old and 16-year-old expressions.
