Adelphi exist to identify the very small number of casks that have produced the ultimate whiskies. The criteria for selection include rarity and maturity, but above all flavour. These whiskies are both rare and sought-after – these very special casks are so rare that, on average, Adelphi accepts a mere 4% that it is offered. Each single cask of whisky matures its contents very differently, imparting its own character to the whisky it holds and, as a result, there are never two Adelphi’s quite the same.
This independent bottling has been sourced from the Glen Garioch distillery where it was distilled in 2011. It was then placed in a single cask and left to mature for 9 years before it was bottled at 58.5% abv in 2021. Outturn of only 462 bottles.
