Glenesk-Hillside 1970 Rare Malt 25 Year Old / 60.10%
The Rare Malt Selection is a historic selection of single malt whiskies from operational and lost distilleries that were released by Diageo between 1995 and 2005.
Known as Glenesk from 1980-85, and prior to that as Hillside since 1964, this distillery produced both malt and grain at different stages in its history. It is not often seen officially bottled, but has contributed to several Rare Malt releases. Distilling ceased there entirely in 1985, and the site operates exclusively as a maltings now.
This particular bottle was distilled in 1970 and bottled as a 25 year old.
Bottle number 2179.
