“Our Old Particular Consortium of Cards series has allowed us to highlight and celebrate some particularly tempting casks from our family vaults throughout this year,” commented Fred Laing, managing director of whisky blender and bottler Douglas Laing & Co.
“Our decision to finish this Mortlach Malt in a PX butt has certainly paid dividends, with the resulting spirit showing incredible depth, plus a rich and indulgent character.”
Old Particular Ace of Spades will be available from this month at an estimated RRP of £78 (US$102).
