Submitted by Susan on November 9, 2016 – 8:53 amNo Comment
The second edition of The Glenlivet Winchester Collection, a series of rare and precious 50-year-old single malt whiskies, is Vintage 1966.
Following the inaugural release of Vintage 1964 in 2014, Vintage 1966 this whisky was created by The Glenlivet Master Distiller Robert Arthur in 1966. Only 100 bottles will be available worldwide — with a suggested price of $25,000.
Vintage 1966 has used sherry casks to enhance the trademark “soft, sweet, sumptuous complexity” that The Glenlivet is known for.
Master Distiller Alan Winchester’s personal bottle of Vintage 1966 was donated to the British Crafts Council and auctioned at Christie’s in New York City last month.
