Why This Bottle Offers Excellent Value

Its value comes from more than age alone. The limited bottle count makes it a distinctive addition to a whisky cabinet, while the distillery bottling offers confidence in its origin.

The 70cl format provides enough whisky to appreciate over time without compromising its collectible appeal.
