Invergordon 1973 CWC Single Grain 42 Year Old Single Malt 750 ml

From the Invergordon Distillery on the east coast of the Scottish Highlands, this is an independently bottled offering of 42 year-old grain whisky that was distilled July 5th, 1973 and bottled in April 2016. Owned by the Glasgow-based blender Whyte & McKay, the grain whisky that comes out of this distillery usually finds itself in blended whiskies, although the distillery does offer a ten year-old Scotch and there are a few independent bottlers who offer Invergordon whisky. This bottling from the Exclusive Malts spent all forty-two years in an ex-bourbon cask (cask no. 12). Only 248 bottles were filled at the cask’s strength of 51.1% ABV. This whisky is non-chill filtered, and contains no added coloring.
