Cask No. 39.198: Understated opulence is a summer escape in a glass, a real armchair dram with floral, rich and elegant depths. This latest Vaults Collection release dances on the tongue, a delicate nod to its Speyside origins.

Bottled a few years ago, this special release was originally destined for distant shores to be enjoyed by some of our international members. Fortunately, we’ve managed to secure a limited number of these for our members here in the UK at an irresistible price.

Distilled in October of 1989, Cask No. 39.198: Understated opulence is a 30–year–old whisky that has spent three decades gently maturing, first in an ex–bourbon hogshead and then in a second fill toasted hogshead. Expect heady notes of Hawaiian lei garlands, vintage pipe pouches, tobacco, and frangipani tree to round out this rare Light & Delicate offering.
