Being Single-Minded Isn't Always a Bad Thing!
We whisky folk are obsessed with being single. Sometimes single malt isn’t even enough, we need a single cask! Perhaps it’s a longing for the days of our youth. When I was a lad of 18 summers, before I met the future Mrs Hamish, I would run wild and free around Inveraray, dropping into the bar at the George whenever I fancied, staying till all hours of the night without a care in the world. Once I met the lady in my life, after a whirlwind romance, I settled down and inevitably my visits to the George became much more organised. “Be home by 10” she’d say. And I’d nod.

We came across the second cask at Aultmore distillery. Distilled in March 2007 and matured for a full decade, this one took me straight back to my youth. Wandering into the sweetie shop and being surrounded by sherbet, bonbons and bags of candyfloss. We bottled this one at 46% too, the perfect strength to enjoy the full array of flavours in this tremendous single cask, giving us just 1130 bottles.

Both these belters are waiting for you to enjoy in the shop and on our website. We’ve managed to make sure there are more bottles available this time round, but stock is still limited by the nature of single casks, so if you want to experience these fantastic Speyside single malts, I suggest you don’t dawdle!
The Bar at the George and the sweet taste of youth – and whisky!
