Founded by Andrea Ferrari, Hidden Spirits is a relatively new Italian independent bottler and online whisky shop, which prides itself on the meticulously careful selection of its bottlings.

Hidden Spirits has its bottle labels designed by different Italian artists, and offers a variety of expressions under several series: the Highproof Collection of cask strength single casks over eight years of age; the Hidden Spirits Classic collection of single casks of varying strength over eight years of age; and the Young Rebels collection of single casks under eight years old.

This independent bottling has been sourced from the Tomintoul distillery where it was distilled in 2005. It was then placed in a refill sherry cask for 13 years before a finishing for 11 months in a cask that previously held heavily peated Ben Nevis. Bottled at 52.6% abv.
