Auchentoshan 25 Year Old 1999 – A Special Anniversary Release

The Whisky Agency and East Village Whisky Company celebrate their joint anniversary with two carefully selected bottlings. This Auchentoshan 25 Year Old from 1999 represents an excellent example of what this Lowland distillery can achieve. Limited to just 120 bottles and bottled at a natural strength of 50.6% ABV, this is a rare opportunity for enthusiasts of refined Scottish whisky.

This barrel bottling stands apart from typical Auchentoshan releases. Twenty-five years of maturation have bestowed a complexity that elevates it beyond the distillery's usual profile. Bottled without chill-filtering at cask strength, it captures the full character of the barrel.

The nose presents yellow fruits, peaches and mango with hints of honey and subtle botanical notes. The palate delivers citrus and tropical flavors, balanced by a pleasant bitter edge that keeps the whisky engaging. A green, lightly bitter character adds definition. The finish is long and layered, combining vanilla, fruity notes and that distinctive bitterness that sets this dram apart.

This is a truly excellent Auchentoshan for the serious collector or whisky enthusiast seeking something distinctive and well-crafted.
