TOMINTOUL 12 YEAR OLD GLENLIVET by Whyte and Mackay, Distillers Glasgow.. Very unusual early 1990's 12 year old Glenlivet now discontinued. Round bottle of fluted glass. Large silver screw top. A dearly departed friend of the whisky connoisseur. This single malt was produced by Whyte and Mackay when they took over the Tomintoul Distillery in 1973 and launched in 1975 as something quite different. Known with affection as the " perfume bottle" or the "aftershave" it contains the finest Speyside single malt. Light, floral and fragrant it is typical of it's class and much lamented in whisky circles. Richard Patterson, master blender at Whyte and Mackays will extol it's virtues all day long. Now too rare to open on anything but very special occasions. In original packaging in top condition. Sold at a very keen price. This is a good investment.
- A 1980s bottling of Tomintoul-Glenlivet, with 43% ABV, and 750 ml.
