Isn’t that a lovely sight? It’s the full range of this year’s Diageo Special Releases, which includes a few very interesting bottles. There are two groups. First, the usual stuff that we’re looking forward to every year:
- Port Ellen 9th release 30yo 1979
- Brora 30yo (previous release was a 25yo)
- Talisker 25yo + Talisker 30yo
- Lagavulin 12yo
- Caol Ila 10yo 1998 unpeated (previous release was younger)
Apart from these ‘regular’ releases, 2009 is a special year because it also presents three bottles of distilleries that are very scarce on the market.
- Benrinnes 1985 23yo
- Mannochmore 1990 18yo
- Pittyvaich 1989 20yo
