About Chapter 7 Anecdote 24 Year Old Blended Malt 

Anecdotes are our short whisky anthology stories. They are one-off, unique and rare. This whisky's story began when four sensational casks arrived in our warehouse. We selected two of them to make our first Anecdote.

This blended malt is 17% Laphroaig and 20% Highland Park. The other of 63% comes from Speyside's famous distilleries. But they're a secret. We can't tell you which they are. But they're fantastic. The whiskies married in bourbon casks for 24 years. The barrels provided fruitiness, a touch of maritime notes and subtle peat.
