About this bottle
This bottle is a rare independent bottling of a single cask Strathisla single malt Scotch whisky, independently selected and released by The Clydesdale Original Whisky Company Ltd.
The Clydesdale Original Scotch Whisky Co. was an independent bottler that launched in the late 1990s, well-regarded for releasing un-chillfiltered, single-cask expressions at natural cask strength. Because these bottlings come from single individual casks rather than large vatings, the total outturn is always strictly limited (typically only a few hundred standard bottles and a small number of miniatures), making them highly sought after by collectors

About the distillery
Strathisla distillery is the oldest continuously operating distillery in the Scottish Highlands. It was founded as the Milltown Distillery by George Taylor and Alexander Milne in 1786 as an alternative to the waning of the flax dressing industry. They leased the land from the Earl of Seafield. By 1830, the distillery was owned by William Longmore, later William Longmore Ltd. In 1879, the distillery suffered terribly from a fire, but was rebuilt with a bottling plant. Bought in 1940 by Jay Pomeroy, a fraudulent financier, it was later acquired in 1950 by James Barclay of Chivas Bros.
