Stillwater North Of Scotland 50 Year Old Scotch Whisky 50cl

Stillwater North of Scotland 50 Year Old Scotch Whisky 50cl is a rare and remarkable tribute to a long-lost distillery. Distilled in December 1971 and bottled in 2022, this single grain Scotch whisky was drawn from a single hogshead cask and released as part of Stillwater Whisky Co.’s limited edition series. The North of Scotland Distillery, which closed its doors in 1980, is fondly remembered for producing some of Scotland’s finest grain whisky. This release captures the spirit of that legacy, presented non-chill filtered, at natural colour, and bottled at cask strength (42.2% ABV).

Only 392 bottles were produced, making this an exceptional collector’s item and a rare tasting experience.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: A whisky to savour slowly, with layered aromas of hand-rolled tobacco, summer berries, and freshly sawn oak. With time in the glass, additional notes emerge — woodsmoke, worn leather, banana, and a touch of eucalyptus.

• Palate: Luxuriously creamy, offering rich flavours of sweet nougat, candied apple, and pecan nuts, followed by deeper notes of vanilla pod, bonfire toffee, and honeycomb.

• Finish: Incredibly balanced and enduring. Despite the gentle ABV, the finish is warm, evolving, and deeply satisfying — a meditative whisky that unfolds sip by sip.

A Tribute to a Silent Distillery

This bottling from Stillwater Whisky Co. stands as a fitting homage to the North of Scotland Distillery, encapsulating over half a century of maturation and craftsmanship. Each bottle carries with it the history of a now silent site, offering whisky enthusiasts a rare opportunity to taste a true piece of Scotland’s distilling past.

Serving Suggestions:

• Best enjoyed neat in a Glencairn glass to appreciate its subtle evolution.

• An ideal gift or collector’s piece for those who appreciate old grain whiskies and historical single cask releases.
