1985 Vintage Whisky
Whisky retailer Master of Malt is founded
In 1985, the Live Aid concerts raised funds for famine relief in Ethiopia, and Mikhail Gorbachev became the leader of the Soviet Union. In whisky, Glenfarclas released a 30-Year-Old expression that became a hallmark of their lineup. These bottles have consistently increased in value, solidifying their standing as a good investment. Whisky retailer Master of Malt is founded as an independent bottling by mail club - laying the foundation for the website you know and love today.
A rise in whisky tourism led to more distilleries offering premium visitor experiences, including private tastings and cask selections. Global demand for Scotch started focusing on older, premium releases, partly influenced by the burgeoning Japanese whisky market. Whisky from 1985 encapsulates a world eager for change and connection, mirrored by an industry leaning into premium experiences and long-aged expressions.
