Royal Lochnagar 30 years 1974 Of. Rare Malts Selection Natural Cask Strengh - bottled 2004 Limited Edition

The wine

A Royal Lochnagar 30 year old distilled in 1974 and bottled at cask strength in 2004 for the Rare Malts series. Created in the mid-1990s by United Distillers (Diageo), the Rare Malts series features bottlings from many of the group’’s distilleries, including some of the lesser known whose production was generally used for blends, as well as closed distilleries such as Port Ellen and Brora. Bottled at cask strength, the whiskies in the range are also known for their sometimes astounding alcohol content, often exceeding 60% ABV. The Rare Malts range was discontinued in 2005.
