Here we go again, one of those already legendary secret Speyside bottlings from the 1970s. Bottlings from the year 1973 seems particularly lovely. I wonder how this 1975 vintage will fair. Pretty good, I imagine.
While earlier this year industry veteran Iain Croucher released a 40 year old blended malt for a very affordable price, he one-upped himself by bottling an even older whisky. The Vega 1976 41 Year Old is described by North Star Spirits as 'a sweet and spicy Speyside blended malt Scotch whisky with a touch of Islay'.
We've seen many of these undisclosed old Speysiders, especially from German independent bottlers. Why is that? One of 'em is this Speyside Region 1975 41 Years Old from Whisky-Fässle.
