This single-cask bottling of an 11-year-old Highland single malt from an unnamed distillery (Glenfarclas?) was produced by the independent bottler Murray McDavid as a ‘Mystery Malt’. The whisky was distilled in 2010, matured in an ex-bourbon hogshead, finished in a first-fill ex-Oloroso sherry hogshead, and bottled in 2022 in a run of 321 bottles.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
