A rare and terrific 1981 18 year old Brora Highland Single Malt Scotch whisky, distilled in June 1981 and bottled after over 18 years maturation in an oak cask in October 1999 in a limited edition of only 335 bottles by Douglas Laing in the Old Malt Cask Single Cask Bottling series without the addition of colouring and chill filtration at 50.0% vol.
Founded over 65 years ago by Fred Douglas Laing, Douglas Laing and Co. is one of the leading independent Scotch whisky blenders and bottlers, specialising in the finest single cask bottlings. Family-owned since 1948, the company is still run by the Laing family today. In keeping with the company's philosophy of no colouring - no chillltration - no nonsense, the whiskies are bottled at a high cask strength and not chill-filtered in order to preserve the robust and unique character of the whisky. The casks were purchased from Scotland's renowned whisky distilleries. Thus, the bottlings include famous active distilleries such as Ardbeg, Macallan, Highland Park and Bowmore, as well as already closed ones such as Port Ellen from the island of Islay. Through their experience and reputation as an old-established blending company, they can fall back on excellent relationships that go back a long way. These also make it possible to acquire one or the other special cask from distilleries that would otherwise not be available for sale.
This exquisite Brora Highland single malt Scotch whisky is considered by connoisseurs to be absolutely excellent, is one of the rarely available excellent old single cask bottlings from the closed Brora distillery from the early 1980s and is a special highlight for connoisseurs, discerning whisky collectors and lovers of fine old Scotch whiskies.
