North British 1960 58 Year Old
This is the first ever commercial North British release and they have ensured that the cask selected is nothing short of exceptional. The 58 years old single cask single grain scotch whisky was bottled at its natural cask strength of 51.6% vol, without colouring or chill-filtration.
After nearly six decades resting in its hogshead, the resulting spirit shows butterscotch, caramelised pineapple and coconut on the nose, with a palate full of toasted oak, cinnamon and cloves; leading to a spiced toffee and molasses finish.
The packaging of the “Incorporation Edition”, including its weighty hand-made oak casket, has been carefully crafted to reflect the quality, rarity and age of the whisky. Each bottle is accompanied by a stitched booklet which has been hand signed and individually numbered by Alan Kilpatrick, the distillery’s Managing Director.
