About the Old Malt Cask 25th Anniversary Range
“The flagship Old Malt Cask series was launched in 1998 and quickly became known amongst connoisseurs as an umbrella for whiskies of the highest quality. Twenty five years later we continue to offer the finest casks from our family cellars under the Old Malt Cask brand, still bottled at 50% alcohol and of course without artificial colouring or chill-filtration. To celebrate a quarter of a century of Old Malt Cask single malts we have selected twenty five expressions to be bottled in the brand’s original, iconic, green and gold presentation. These Twenty Fifth Anniversary releases are drawn from across Scotland’s signature whisky producing regions and reflect the varied selection of Malts which have appeared under the Old Malt Cask banner. As ever with the Old Malt Cask range we offer them to you with confidence and pride.”
Old Malt Cask Pulteney 20 Year
$339.99
This 2002 vintage Pulteney (only the distillery can add the pre-fix "old") was matured 20 years in a Refill ex-Boubon Barrel before bottling at 50%. We see so few independent bottlings of Pulteney, and this one sounds like it is right up our alley... a twenty-something from a refill cask!
Old Malt Cask BenRiach 20 Year
$314.99
Distilled in 2001 and bottled in 2022, this BenRiach was bottled at 50%, as is tradition for OMC, after 20 years in a Refil Hogshead.
OMC 25th Annv. Linkwood 13 Year
$174.99
Ex-Cream Sherry casks. Not something we hear much of for whisky maturation, but Hunter Laing seems to have some. This 13 Year Old Linkwood was bottled in celebration of Old Malt Cask's 25th Anniversary. How can the Old Malt Cask label be older than the Hunter Laing Company? That is an interesting story for another time! From a single Canasta Cream Sherry Butt, bottled at 50%.
OMC 25th Annv Miltonduff 13 Year
$164.99
Bottled at 50% and 13 years of age from a Canasta Cream Sherry Cask. This whisky was bottled as a part of the 25th Anniversary Range for Old Malt Cask.

Old Malt Cask Glenburgie 21 Year
$264.99
This 21 year old Glenburgie was distilled in 2000 and matured in a Refill Hogshead cask before bottling at 50%.
Note that this was distilled at Glenburgie distillery, not the legendary and mythical Glernburgie Distillery that we previously fabricated by means of a typo. Like the fabled Macallum, Ardberg, and Aberdelfy before it, the Glernburgie distillery has been mothballed, demolished, and spell-corrected.
Old Malt Cask Orkney 14 Year
$154.99
Probably Highland Park, but there is chance it could be Scapa. The distillery closed for refurbishments in 2005, but when did it reopen? The tasting note sounds like Highland Park, but there is no mention of smoke? The plot thickens! Distilled in 2006, matured in a Refill Hogshead and bottled at 50%.
Old Malt Cask Talisker 11 Year
$359.99
Hopes are high for this one, despite the jawdropping price... we have have several Taliskers from Hunter Laing in recent years, and they have all been excellent. Bottled from a single refill Sherry Butt (HL 19722) filled in 2011, and bottled after 11 years at 50%.
This one has a good early score of 88.75pts on Whiskybase!
Old Malt Cask Glen Garioch 13 Year
$121.99
Distilled in 2008, this 13 year old Glen Garioch was matured in a Refill Hogshead cask, and has been bottled at 50%, as is common practice for the Old Malt Cask Range.
