45 Year old Whisky

Complimentary Premium Shipping

DISTILLED ON 23RD DECEMBER 1973, this wonderfully elegant liquid has spent its entire 45 years in bourbon barrels, with the majority of its maturation in refill bourbon before being re-casked into first fill bourbon to mature for a further 7 years before finally being bottled at 43.8% ABV.

  • Unsurprisingly, the December of 1973 was a cold, wet and windy month in Campbeltown. However, on the 23rd day, the last production to be filled into casks before Christmas was destined to become a truly wonderful Campbeltown single malt whisky. The spirit was filled into refill bourbon casks and then tucked away in bonded warehouses for over three decades to be nurtured by time and the unique Campbeltown climate.

    In 2011 the liquid was carefully re-casked into first fill bourbon, then laid down to mature until 2019 when it was non-chill filtered, to retain the individual characteristics of each cask, then bottled at 43.8% to gift the world the extraordinarily rare and very sought after Glen Scotia 45 year Old.
