40 year old

40-year-old whisky is the sort of bottle that makes anyone sit up straight, collectors or otherwise. With four decades in the cask, flavours become incredibly concentrated: antique oak, dark fruit, tobacco, and spice. Here you can read about some of the oldest and most remarkable whiskies that distilleries have bottled. 40-year-old whisky makes a great gift for a fortieth birthday or a ruby anniversary. Find out about the latest distillery releases right here.
