A very special 50-year-old Whyte & MacKay, bottled in 2019 for Whyte & Mackay's 175th Anniversary. Just 1750 half litre bottles of this special blend were made, of which 1500 were given away to competition winners at the time.
Bottled at a good drinking strength of 44.5%, the whiskies for this 50-year-old Whyte & Mackay blend were matured in a combination of bourbon barrels, a tawny port pipe and first and second fill sherry butts that previously contained Matusalem Oloroso or Apostoles Palo Cortado sherry from the famed Gonzalez Byass producer.
Matusalem and Apostoles are VORS sherries, meaning that they are aged around 30 years minimum on average, and add profoundly rich, deep flavours to the mix - this will be an absolute stunner.

Fabulous easy on the pallet , likes a little water, warm , buttery and nutty . Everyone I've given it to say how much they love it. Less one star as it's not as long on the pallet as I like. But I'll get more.
For a blended whisky it has character and flavour which can be unusual for a blended. The peatiness is both in the nosing and the drinking. Smooth taste and almost comparable to a single malt.
