A 1973 Vintage, Single Sherry Cask, 49-Year-Old Highland Single Malt — Cask Strength
This isn’t just another old whisky — it’s a rich, mouth-coating, unctuous Highland single malt drawn from a single Sherry cask, bottled at natural cask strength (41.5% ABV) after 49 long years of aging. Released under the trusted Alexander Murray private label, this 1973 vintage delivers an extraordinary experience for a price that borders on unbelievable.
We’ve tasted the barrel ourselves. It’s stunning.
Deep layers of dark cacao, toffee, and spiced cake lead the way, grounded by earthy undertones that balance the richness. The finish? Long, sweet, complex — it lingers for minutes. We can only imagine what awaits those of you lucky enough to sit with a full bottle rather than just a sample.
