Distilleries 1, 9, 8 and 3, of course, spell out the year that the Society was founded. In this collection we hark back to the Society’s first bottling, with Cask No. 1.283: Happy in a hippy shop from the Speyside distillery where it all began for us in 1983. Cask No. 9.274: Toffee apple orchard is a 19-year-old classic Sweet, Fruity & Mellow flavour profile bottling. Cask No. 8.43: Shaded by flowers is from one of our less commonly seen distilleries, renowned for its use of sherry cask maturation and Cask No. 3.348: Mellifluous quince is a Society favourite from an Islay distillery treasured for its perfumed smoke.
