✦ Neatly Summary

Garnheath 43 Year Old 1974 (cask 11619) - Xtra Old Particular (Douglas Laing) is a 43-year-old grain from Garnheath (Lowland, Scotland), bottled at 47.5% ABV. Expect sweet, oaky and delicately floral character — oily, vanilla, toasted, sandy. A well-balanced whisky that appeals to both newcomers and enthusiasts. A collector's expression at a premium price point.

Garnheath's 1974 single grain, aged 43 years in a refill hogshead and bottled by Douglas Laing in 2017, represents one of Scotland's last bottles from this closed Lowland grain distillery. Decades of maturation in refill oak have developed subtle, elegant character—light spirit made complex through extended aging rather than aggressive cask influence. A rare historical bottling for grain whisky enthusiasts and collectors of defunct distillery stocks.
