TASTING NOTE: “A little shy on the nose, but bright citrus notes of lemon and orange peel, a hint of menthol freshness. Medium-weight but expansive, the initial fruit opening out onto a toasty, nutty back-palate with light, nicely balanced cinnamon, marzipan and cardamom hints.

VAT 69 – 750ml
0 out of 5(0)VAT 69 is a Scotch blended whisky created by William Sanderson & Son Limited of South Queensferry, Scotland, now part of Diageo.
Despite its name, VAT 69 is not a vatted malt, but a blend of about 40 malt and grain whiskies. VAT 69 Reserve carries no standard age statement because of the combination of the malts and grains.
It is a famous old brand of blended whisky, chosen by Sir Ernest Shackleton to accompany him on his Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1914 ‘for medicinal and celebratory purposes’, and also famously the favourite whisky of Captain Lewis Nixon of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, immortalised in the book and TV series Band of Brothers.

Royal Salute 21 Year Old
0 out of 5(0)In 1953, the young Princess Elizabeth ascended the throne. The occasion called for a tribute fit for a queen and so an exquisite blend was created using whisky from Strathisla, the oldest working distillery in the Scottish Highlands. It was given the name Royal Salute – after the famous 21-gun-salute – and so began the story of a remarkable whisky.
On the nose, there are notes of sweet orange and peaches, balanced perfectly with smouldering bonfire embers.
Take a sip, and enjoy the fruits of all this labour. Relish sweet, juicy pears, fresh hazelnuts and charred orange rind balanced perfectly with aromatic, smoky peat.
At the heart of The Lost Blend are rare whiskies rescued from distilleries that have vanished into the mist.
