Secret Speyside Distillery 24 Year Old 1998 Single Cask (Private Label) | 700ML

While taking a hike around the Speyside region, we came across the strangest thing. A high-security distillery! There were watch towers, some serious looking personnel in dark shades and suits, all wearing earpieces, and a whole load of Acme-style booby traps dotted about. We thought it must be some kind of training camp, but when we asked at the gate we discovered the truth. A truth we can't share, because it is Top Secret, and also marked Strictly Confidential, in big red stencil letters. 24 year old single malt from a secret Speyside distillery, matured in refill bourbon barrels and bottled by us in 2022, with a total outturn of 308 bottles.

Secret Speyside Distillery 24 Year Old 1998 Single Cask (Private Label) | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Fresh apples and a hint of drying hay before a big wave of creamy vanilla and soft, buttery barley. Fluffy pancakes, grilled peach, a delicate hint of marzipan.

Palate: A gentle start with vanilla cream and buttery flapjack soon develops into richly warming spice. Notes of Madeira cake, packed with sultanas, with dustings of fiery cinnamon warming the edges.

Finish: Juicy stewed apples, and dense, woody spice. Anise and clove are joined by herb-infused caramel, black pepper, plus a hint of liquorice, though sweet vanilla cream remains in play.

Distillery Information

Master of Malt was founded in 1985 as a retailer and bottler of whisky and other fine spirits. Today, we bottle new whiskies all the time, and our policy is simple: we only ever put our name on anything that makes us go “Wow!” That’s all there is to it! Being extremely picky, we regularly try dozens of cask samples before we find one we’re willing to bottle (trying glass after glass of fine Scotch whisky is harder than it sounds!). We also dearly love to bottle unusual whiskies too. When it comes to bottling, we like to leave things unadulterated. We never add caramel colouring to our whiskies, and we prefer to leave them at natural cask strength. In the rare occasion when we lower the bottling strength we never, ever use chill-filtration, as we believe this affects the flavour of good spirit, and we can’t have that! We also offer 3cl whisky samples of as many of our own bottlings as possible, to give you the opportunity to try before you buy. Plus, if you’re looking for an extra special gift, we are more than happy to personalise anything from our own range...
