Description

An iconic Lowland malt whisky distillery that is currently owned and operated by Ian Macleod Distillers. It developed a cult status among connoisseurs following the unpopular decision by United Distillers to close it in 1993, laying dormant for over three decades before resuming production in 2023. This is a single cask Rosebank 1990 Vintage, 18 Year Old Single Malt bottled by Douglas Laing in 2008 as part of their Old Malt Cask range. It was matured in a refill butt/hogshead and bottled at 50% ABV.
