Auchroisk Prima & Ultima Second Release Single Malt Scotch Whisky 47 Year Old · 1974 Vintage
Out of stock
The very first cask to be filled at Auchroisk when distilling began on 15th January 1974, this cask has been kept back for many years for its character and its rarity. Remarkably rich and spicy, with fruity aromas and smooth flavours.
The Prima & Ultima 2nd Release has been personally hand-selected by Master of Malts Maureen Robinson; "After 47 years I find this unrepeatable bottling, which is also this year’s oldest Prima & Ultima release, something of a miracle. It is the very first Auchroisk, the oldest ever bottled. The only opportunity you may ever have to drink a single malt whisky this mature, from the first cask filled on the distillery’s first day.”.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery highlights and a burnished-gold edge.
Nose
Remarkably rich and spicy on the nose, with lush fruity aromas—ripe orchard fruit, hints of apricot, and a warm, softly woody backdrop.
Palate
Sweet baked apple on a brambly, wooded base, leading into a creamy texture and a distinctly sweet finish.
Finish
Bold on the tongue, it delivers rich fruit notes—apple and berries—softening into a warm, spicily drying finish that lingers with elegant restraint.
