The Pittyvaich Distillery was closed in 1993 and the public has rarely seen any of its casks get a chance in the limelight since.

Fortunately, Diageo has provided us with the chance to sample the almost-forgotten delights of Pittyvaich through this 1989-vintage edition. This limited edition was matured in refill American-oak hogsheads and bottled at a cask strength 52.1%.

75cl at 52.1% alc./vol.

TASTING NOTES


NOSE

Mixed peel, apple and mint. Candied orange builds along with distillery aromas: it's all about the washbacks. Zingy fruit and yeasty funk with a background of sultanas and grapes. Like leaning over a fully fermented washback and taking a deep breath.

TASTE

Thick and oily on the tongue. The apples are back, as is the yeastiness. There's a background of spice along with fruity touches – pineapple juice drunk from the tin, freshly sliced Granny Smith apples and a touch of unripe mango.

FINISH

Mint and orange zest with a touch of yeastiness.
