- Description
- Haig Gold Label was a staple Scottish blended whisky of the 1960s, distinguished by its tall bottle format—a rarity for the distillery's releases of that era. This 40% ABV expression reflects the softer, lighter house style typical of mid-century Scottish blends, with gentle grain sweetness and malty notes. Best suited to those collecting vintage Scottish whisky or exploring the evolution of the blended category.
