Royal Lochnagar 1960 Inveralmond Commemorative Bottling 20cl

A 1960 vintage Royal Lochnagar, distilled from the barley grown at Inveralmond while it was occupied by Dewar's (and United Distillers by the time of bottling).

Royal Lochnagar is so-called after it was bestowed with a Royal Warrant by Prince Albert and Queen Victoria following a visit in 1848. The popularity of the distillery’s Begg’s blend saw it acquired by John Dewar & Sons in 1916, who later became part of DCL, upping the demand for its whisky from other brands in their portfolio, including Johnnie Walker. Today it is part of Diageo, their smallest distillery by some margin, making the modest amount of its single malt spared for bottling increasingly sought after.

Bottled from sherry wood in 1976, and then rebottled into this special commemorative set in 1992 to celebrate 30 years at the Inveralmond site.
