Master of Malt Relaunches Independent Bottling Range In Celebration of 40th Anniversary
Online retailer Master of Malt has relaunched its in-house independent bottling range in celebration of 40 years in the drinks industry.
The new collection of single cask and small batch spirits is selected by a small team of passionate enthusiasts who bottle only what they love to drink themselves, and is presented without added color or chill-filtration.
Master of Malt’s 40th anniversary independent bottling lineup includes:
- Master of Malt Dailuaine 16 Year Old 2008 Single Cask: “Sherry and rum casks collide in this utter beauty of a single malt Scotch whisky from Speyside. The whisky began its maturation in a refill sherry hogshead, then transferred to a refill rum cask, bringing layer upon layer of rich fruit, honeyed sweetness, and subtle tropical funk.” Bottled at 51.1% ABV. RRP £69.95 (70 cL).
- Master of Malt Blended Grain 37 Year Old: “A mighty 1987 vintage blended grain Scotch whisky. Matured for a stonking 37 years, this one is layered with chewy toffee, buttered toast, and notes of bubblegum sweetness.” Bottled at 54.7% ABV. RRP: £99.99 (70 cL).
- Master of Malt Tobermory 29 Year Old 1996 Single Cask: “Oh, so moreish Tobermory, bottled at a grand old age of 29 years. Bursting with sweet citrus and tropical guava, with rich old oak at its core, it’s a superbly mellow sipper.” Bottled at 46.7% ABV. RRP: £199.99 (70 cL).
- Master of Malt A Secret Speyside Distillery 10 Year Old: “The most gluggable of secret Speysiders! Packed with nutty, estery malt, this 10-year-old is bottled from a marriage of casks, expect a luscious medley of ripe stone fruits, tropical sweetness, and buttery pastry layers, with hints of vanilla, white chocolate, and a soft, nutty finish.” Bottled at 40% ABV. RRP: £34.95 (70 cL).
- Master of Malt Invergordon 13 Year Old 2013 Single Cask: “Invergordon. Invariously awesome! This one is no exception. Distilled in September 2011, this single grain Scotch spent 13 years maturing in a refill butt, bringing waves of buttery brioche and banana alongside hints of herbaceous mint.” Bottled at 66.6% ABV. RRP £49.95: (70 cL).
- Master of Malt Blended Scotch Whisky 25 Year Old 1993: “Layers of cherries and chocolate unfurl in this marvellous 1993 vintage blended Scotch, married from a host of hogshead casks. Rich and sticky-sweet, with notes of molasses, burnt sugar, buttery shortbread, ginger cake, candied tropical fruits, and a warm finish of spiced fruit cake and orange butter.” Bottled at 40% ABV. RRP: £74.95 (70 cL).
