Pittyvaich 30 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky comes from the closed Pittyvaich distillery, making it a true collector's item. Distilled in 1989 and aged for 30 years in first-fill ex-bourbon casks, it's the first Pittyvaich ever finished in this way. Expect a decadent character with rich fruit and spice notes, along with a luscious vanilla sweetness imparted by the unique cask aging.

Description

This exceptionally rare Speyside single malt hails from the now-silent Pittyvaich distillery, making it a coveted treasure for whisky enthusiasts. Distilled in 1989 and patiently slumbering for three decades in virgin American bourbon casks, it marks a unique chapter in Pittyvaich’s history – the first ever bottling finished in this specific cask type.

Prepare yourself for a decadent symphony of flavors. The initial nose presents a mellow, almost dry character, where notes of ripe orchard fruits intertwine with whispers of exotic greenery, reminiscent of a tropical rainforest. As it meets your palate, the whisky transforms into a smooth, luxuriously oily experience. Rich vanilla sweetness takes center stage, generously layered with hints of your favorite fruits. The finish, while described as slightly short and drying, offers a lingering warmth and a touch of gentle spice, leaving a truly memorable impression.

To fully appreciate the intricate tapestry of flavors, savor this whisky neat in a traditional nosing glass. A single drop of water can help unlock even more aromatic complexity, allowing you to delve deeper into the whisky’s hidden depths.
