North British The Incorporation Edition Single Grain Scotch Whisky & Miniature 58 Year Old · 1960 Vintage
Out of stock
Released in collaboration with Douglas Laing, this is the first commercial bottling of North British single grain, and boy have they started big. Matured in a single hogshead cask for a 58 years, being laid down in July 1960. Only 222 bottles were produced.
As you'd expect after almost six decades of ageing, this is delicate, poised and composed with sweet pineapple and coconut balanced by toasty oak sweetness and spice.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Sun-lit gold with honeyed amber depth and a subtle copper glow.
Nose
Delicate, poised nose of sweet pineapple and coconut, harmonised by toasty oak and a quiet spice. The grain sweetness sits gracefully in the background, a refined whisper from 58 years in cask.
Palate
Delicate and poised on the palate, tropical notes of sweet pineapple and coconut rise, gracefully folded into toasty oak sweetness and spice. Silky, restrained sweetness supports a refined mouthfeel, delivering a long, elegant finish with gentle warmth and lingering hints of oak.
Finish
Long, poised finish that lingers with tropical sweetness. Pineapple and coconut fade into a gentle, toasted oak warmth, threaded with spice. A refined, persistent finish that carries six decades of grace—delicate, elegant, with subtle fruit and oak spice lingering.
