Description

The Blended Malt 20 Year Old Whisky Sponge Edition No.44 Saturnalia is a whimsical, high-concept blended malt from Angus MacRaild's Decadent Drinks. Released in late 2021 as a 'counter-measure' to Black Friday commercialism, it is named after the ancient Roman winter festival that preceded Christmas. This 20-year-old blended malt was created by marrying a 2001 refill sherry butt of mystery blended malt (rumored to be heavily composed of Edrington-owned malts like Macallan or Highland Park) with a 2000 refill hogshead of Glenrothes. It is designed for easy and merry quaffing.
