Lowland Single Grain Scotch Whisky
Bottled By: Duncan Taylor 70cl / 55.1%

A 26-year-old North British single grain whisky from the 1978 vintage bottled in 2005 by Duncan Taylor for their Rare Auld range. This Rare Auld North British 1978 26-year-old came from a single cask number 239967, which yielded 170 bottles at its impressive cask strength of 55.1%. 

This North British 1978 seems to have been the first full-size single grain whisky that Duncan Taylor bottled back in the day, kicking off what was to become a remarkable stream of top class aged single grains from the company. The quality of those whiskies played a significant role in the bringing the category to the attention of discerning whisky fans, so this one is a rather interesting footnote in the history of the evolution of today's whisky market.
