Highland Park 14 Year Old Adelphi's Fascadale Batch #10
Lot number: 135-00477
Winning bid: £60
1825 saw the official opening of the Adelphi distillery in the Gorbals, Glasgow, but after changing hands a smattering of times throughout the mid to late 1800’s, it finally ended up in the hands of DLC in 1902. Sadly, production at the distillery ceased shortly afterwards.
Fast forward to 1993, and we see Jamie Walker, the great-grandson of one of the distillery’s founders reviving the Adelphi name as an independent bottler, ultimately selling the company to Keith Falconer and Donald Houston in 2004, who went on to found Ardnamurchan distillery.
Cracking single malt from Highland Park, independently bottled up by Adelphi for its Fascadale series. Matured for 14 years in Oloroso sherry casks, it boasts a splendid balance of juicy fruit and coastal character. Yep, those folks at Adelphi sure know a good single malt when they find one.
