This limited edition tasting set – with only 250 available exclusively on Malts.com – contains the 2020 Special Releases Collection of limited edition cask strength whiskies which retains the popular ‘Rare By Nature’ theme introduced a year ago and revisits the same eight renowned distilleries. For the first time in the collection’s twenty-year history this has given master blender, Dr Craig Wilson, the chance to build an ‘encore’ collection that shows each of them in a new light. In this tasting set, you will discover single malts with distinctive maturations, rare finishes and unexpected taste profiles. Each one offers a fresh view of that distillery’s character, drawn from the most varied stocks of mature malt whisky in Scotland. With only a limited number of sets released exclusively on Malts.com, this is the perfect gift for whisky lovers and collectors. This Limited Edition Special Releases Tasting Set Contains:

CARDHU 11 YEAR OLD (56% ABV) A small batch from refill, new and ex-bourbon American oak, for floral sweetness and spicy intensity.

CRAGGANMORE 20 YEAR OLD (55.8% ABV) An age never before released from the distillery, matured in the refill and new fresh-charred casks.

DALWHINNIE 30 YEAR OLD (51.9% ABV) Some of the last drops of this elegant and lively Highlander, matured in refill hogsheads filled in 1989.

LAGAVULIN 12 YEAR OLD (56.4% ABV) Soaring and intense, a small batch of single vintage Lagavulin matured in refill American oak casks.

MORTLACH 21 YEAR OLD (56.9% ABV) Rich in smooth intensity, from a small batch, finished in Pedro Ximenez and Oloroso-seasoned casks.

PITTYVAICH 30 YEAR OLD (50.8% ABV) A 1989 ghost, the first release ever to be finished in first-fill ex-bourbon casks.

TALISKER 8 YEAR OLD (57.9% ABV) A big taste, the first-ever release of Talisker finished in pot-still Caribbean rum casks.

THE SINGLETON 17 YEAR OLD (55.1% ABV) Pure character from a first-ever release matured only in refill American oak hogsheads.
