The Last Drop 50 Year Old Release #29 Blended Scotch Whisky | 700ML

In 2020, we released our first rum: an incredibly powerful “overproof” Jamaican Rum, which met with rapturous enthusiasm across the world. Back in Scotland, however, we wondered: what would happen if we put the remaining single barrel of the 1971 blend into the now empty barrel.

The Last Drop 50 Year Old Release #29 Blended Scotch Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: "On the nose, the high ester notes from the rum cask influence present an enticing and lively invitation. This is quickly followed by the rich fruitiness of ripe bananas, mixed spice and notes of liquorice."

Palate: "With the added influence of two years in an “overproof” ex-Jamaican Rum cask, this 50 year old Scotch Whisky has now been through four different periods of maturation: in the mouth we can explore each of these. Rich and smooth sweet fruit flavours predominate, and then the dark spiciness of black treacle, caramelised pineapple, cinnamon and a hint of liquorice."

Finish: "The spicy influence of the oak lingers, alongside the dark molasses rum influence. A supremely rounded mouthfeel and 50 years of maturation and adventure linger in the memory."
