About Old Perth Limited Edition 2024

As with all the Old Perth range, this whisky is fully matured in sherry casks. This particular release is the annual limited edition for 2024, and has been aged in Manzanilla sherry casks.

Manzanilla sherry is a type of fino sherry exclusively produced in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, Spain, known for its dry, light body and distinctive salty tang. Aged under a layer of yeast called "flor" in the unique coastal microclimate, Manzanilla tpyically features notes of almonds, green apples, chamomile, and herbs. Its unique production and character make Manzanilla a very elegant sherry. 

And its not a cask one often sees used, so this release from Old Perth is a nice treat. Scotch whisky aged in Manzanilla sherry casks combines the richer character of Scotch with the delicate, salty tang of Manzanilla sherry. These whiskies typically have subtle notes of green apple, chamomile, and a distinct maritime salinity, enhancing the complexity and depth of the spirit.

Meet the family

The Morrisons

The Morrison's are one of the oldest whisky families in Scotland. The dynasty started in the 18th century when they were grocers. Over the centuries since, they have grown into whisky brokers, blenders, and distillers. Today they are known as Morrison Scotch Whisky Distillers and are led by Jamie and Brian Morrison.

Jamie and Brian release whiskies under three brands. Old Perth is their sherried range, and Mac-Talla is their Islay range, and then Carn Mor releases small batch whiskies from a range of distilleries.
