Elderly Elvis Tilting #2 (Glenlivet) 25 Year Old “Dramfool” Bourbon Barrel Aged Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) (Pre-Arrival) $249.99 View

Jim McEwan.  Colour: August Barley Aromas – Opens on a foundation aroma of malted barley, crisp and sweet. Moving into a harmonious Heather in bloom freshness with hints of candied almonds. Next its a gentle drift of charred oak & bourbon which takes you back in time to its original occupant which adds a spicy sweetness that works beautifully with the oak. Palate – At 25 Years old maturing in a bourbon barrel cask the flavours are outstanding. The sweet spiciness from the bourbon cask works beautifully with the vanilla & the spice plus the caramel flavour from the toasted oak then add the skills of the Distilling team, time and the malted barley produced by the farmers and that’s what makes this such a beautiful spirit.

K&L Notes. The 69th release from Dramfool, “Elderly Elvis Tilting,” comes from one of the most renowned Speyside distilleries. Distilled on October 6th, 1998 and matured for an impressive 25 years in bourbon barrel #4406979, it was bottled at 55.4% ABV cask strength on October 10th, 2023. Rarely do we see this kind of well aged blue chip cask bottled for a reasonable price anymore. While many famous distilleries are pushing 300-400 dollars for the 18 year releases, you can still find incredible value on the independent market. Dramfool has made an exceptional name for themselves through the quality of the casks they select to bottle. This 25 year from Glenlivet Distillery (a careful anagram of Elderly Elvis Tilting so as to not officially divulge the ‘secret’ distillery) is a massive coup for the team at Dramfool to be able to offer at this price.
