Release in June 2013 for the annual Feis Ile, this Caol Ila was specially selected by Billy Stitchell.

Bottle number 0448 of 3,000

Billy said this about how the whisky matured:

“Spirit distilled in 1998 has been triple-cask matured. For 12 years it rested in a combination of Refill Butts, Hogsheads and Barrels. The vatted whisky was then allowed to mature for several months in active hogshead casks to impart a spicy/oaky note to the existing delicate Caol Ila smoke. Finally it was treated to a final gentle maturation in European oak.”

Johnnie Walker 1805 Celebration Blend

A near mythical bottle of Johnnie Walker,  Jim Beveridge was asked to create one of the rarest and exclusive whiskies to mark the 200th anniversary of John Walker's birthday.

This exceedingly rare Johnnie Walker was never intended for public sale as all of the bottles were gifted to people who (in the companies opinion) ‘made a significant contribution to modern life’, the company has never divulged this list.

This very limited whisky was produced from only 9 casks all aged between 45 and 70 years old and limited to only 200 bottles.  

The presentation of this bottle is exceptional, the bottle is nestled inside a lockable victorian style writing case alongside a replica antique nib pen and a recreation of John Walker's son Alexander Walker II's handwritten book of blending recipes.  The writing along the etched onto the bottle reads from the oldest remaining document in their archives: \"The inventory of the estate and effects of John Walker, November 1819\"

Please note the bottle number in this case has been edited digitally to protect the sellers identity, for more photographs or information on this bottle please contact us.
