Bunnahabhain 40 Year Old in Writing Case
Lot number: 070-0363
Winning bid: £1,950
When reviewing ledgers dating back decades, master distiller Ian MacMillan uncovered a missing series of Turney casks considered by some to be the finest oak casks ever made. Much to his surprise, the casks were filled with maturing malt whisky.
The discovery lead to a one-off rare single malt that was a big hit at The Whisky Show 2012. This run is limited to only 750 bottles globally, with each individually numbered and delivered in an oak gift box.
Renowned illustrator Iain McIntosh was commissioned for the specially designed labeling, which carries secrets itself. The heavy wood tube features a hidden compartment in the bottom.
This limited release of the 40 Year Old comes in a magnificent "writing case" which contains an ornate feather quill, ink pot, spare nibs and two glasses.
Age: 40 Year Old
41.7% ABV / 70cl
Bottle Number: 297 / 750
