This item is archived.

Released as a part of Diageo's 2019 Special Release, this 29 year old single malt, from the closed Pittyvaich distillery, was finished in PX and Oloroso seasoned casks before bottling at 51.4%. Only a handful of official bottlings have ever been released by this distillery!

Producer Description

"A unique expression with real depth of flavour and character of a ‘ghost’ malt from a closed distillery, this is the only double-matured Pittyvaich ever released and the only one to have been finished in Pedro Ximenez/Oloroso blend seasoned casks."

Producer Tasting Note

Nose: A mellow nose overall, with very light prickle; lightly nose drying, with first faint and delicate impressions of fruitiness and dried flowers, beneath which there’s a note of buttery sponge. A drop of water enhances the dried flowers, brings up the sweetness, and adds spicy touches of sweet ginger and hardwood shavings.

Palate: At natural strength, mouth-filling, and ultra-smooth in texture. The taste is immediately rich and very sweet, with light dried fruits; golden sultanas in light liquor. It quickly becomes spicy, with tannic gunpowder tea in mid-palate, and is drying overall. Similar though softer with water, when sweet toffee can be discerned.

Finish: Long, smooth, and spicy, finishing with a shake of powdered ginger and a lingering, embracing warmth. With water, smoother.
