1993 Clynelish 22 Year Silver Seal “Whisky is Class…ical – Elisir D’Amore” Single Cask #7562 Highland Single Malt Whisky (700ml) (Pre-Arrival, Elsewhere 600) $400.00 View

This exceptional barrel of Clynelish was selected by the unparalleled palate of Signor Massimo Righi for his wild “Whisky is Class…iscal” series of single cask single malts. Each is named for a classical piece of music and this one for composer Gaetano Donizetti which premiered in Milan on May 12th, 1832. Bottled in 2016 at cask strength without chill filteration only 259 bottles were produced. Only 36 have been secured for the US market and they’re already trading in Europe at a significant mark up from our price.

1984 Longmorn 30 Year “Silver Seal – Wild Life Collection” Single Sherry Butt #3212 Speyside Single Malt Whisky (700m (Pre-Arrival) $599.99 View

An ultra rare long aged expression from the well regarded Longmorn Distillery bottled under the attractive Silver Seal “Whisky is Nature: Wild Life Collection” is adorned with the powerful and majestic Leopard to match the grace and depth of this fantastic single sherry butt distilled over 30 years ago. Distilled in 1984 and bottled in 2015 at cask strength, it’s clearly true that Massimo Righi’s Silver Seal line has access to product almost no one else can match. Finding a Longmorn aged this long is next to impossible and even more unusual to find a cask strength single barrel expression. Only 12 bottles are available for the entire US and they’re sold exclusively at K&L Wine Merchants.

In late December of 2020, the TTB quietly passed a regulation that allowed 700ml bottles to be imported into the US. While this might not seem like big news, it is actually a windfall for spirits lovers as it unlocks a stash of previously untapped bottlings to our shores. We could not be more excited, as it quickly adds another dimension to our unparalleled spirits program. Above you’ll find some of our first discoveries in this format, and they are all incredibly rare and rewarding mature Scotch collectibles that also present remarkable value compared to other standards from the distilleries. If these are any indication of what’s to come, those extra 50ml will not be missed.
