Highland Single Grain Scotch Whisky Bottled by: The Alistair Walker Whisky Company 70cl / 44.6%
An ancient 34-year-old Invergordon 1988 single grain whisky bottled by Alistair Walker in 2022 for Batch 11 of their Infrequent Flyers range.
This 1988 Invergordon spent the last part of its 34 years ageing in a virgin oak cask 804137, which ended up yielding a total of 255 bottles at its cask strength of 44.6%. Invergordon distillery is owned by Whyte & Mackay, who use almost the entirety of its output for their blended Scotch whisky brands, so it's great when a really old cask like this slips through the net.

Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Colour: Golden straw.
Nose: Coconut toasties, caramelised oak and Battenburg cake, with that familiar and welcome aldehydic aroma of single grain whisky.
Palate: The lengthy period in wood sees any industrial grain notes dissipate, evolving into a very soft and approachable dram. Coconut marzipan sponge cake and almond praline from the grain: the virgin oak brings butterscotch and honey to the party - a lovely combination.

An exciting deep rich brown coloured liquid.
A compote of fruit together with dried grapes is lovely on the tongue.
Nicely sweetened syrup is evident too.
Invested in two bottles but will be ordering a third.
Great warming malt enjoyed by two. (One aka Pig)
I know I bought a cask strength whisky but was expecting a nice taste but the strength overpowered the flavor, I found it harsh, but I am not a whiskey conasur. I also bought the secret Orkney signatory cask strength and that was very nice.
