- Description
- This secretive 15-year-old Orkney single malt, independent-bottled by The Vintage Malt Whisky Co., was distilled in December 2005 and matured in a single bourbon cask before cask-strength bottling in 2021 (one of 360 bottles). Without distillery confirmation, specific tasting notes remain a mystery, though Orkney malts typically show maritime character and balanced sweetness. Best approached as a collectible for those intrigued by whisky anonymity.
