Were you born in 1991? If so this vintage set might be just for you…even if you weren’t born in 1991 we still HIGHLY recommend purchasing this set of three terrific drams.
This set of three 30ml samples contains a brilliant single cask Ardbeg, an oil heavy Teaninich and a dram from the lost Highland distillery Lochside, during the final years of production at the distillery.
Ardbeg – 1991 Vintage, 15 Year Old rum cask finish – Old Malt Cask
A 1991 vintage single cask 15 year old Ardbeg that was bottled by Douglas Laing for their Old Malt Cask range in October 2006.
The whisky was matured in a rum finished barrel, bottled at 50% abv (like all other Old Malt Cask releases) and limited to just 312 bottles.
90s Ardbeg – Check. Single Cask 90s Ardbeg – Check. Single cask 90s Ardbeg WITH a rum cask finish – TRIPLE CHECK. This really is a fantastic opportunity to try a rare, delicious and multilayered Ardbeg that is perfect for the approaching summer months and the ideal BBQ dram.
Teaninich – 1991 Vintage, 14 Year Old – Connoisseurs Choice
A 1991 vintage, 15 year old Teaninich that was matured in refill sherry casks and bottled at 46% abv in 2006 by Gordon & MacPhail for their legendary Connoisseurs Choice range.
Distilled in December 1991, this whisky spent 14 years maturing in refill sherry butts before being bottled in April 2006.
Lochside 1991 Vintage, 13 Year Old – Connoisseurs Choice
A 1991 vintage, 13 Year Old Lochside that was bottled in 2004 by Gordon & MacPhail for their legendary Connoisseurs Choice range.
