A very rare vintage 1968 39 year old Macduff Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky from the Rare Auld Collection by Duncan Taylor, distilled in November 1968 and bottled after 35 years of maturation in oak cask no. 8550 in Febrary 2008 without colouring and chill filtration at cask strength 49.1% vol. in an edition of only 200 individually numbered bottles. This unique old bottling of the vintage 1969 39 years Macduff Highland Single Malt Scotch from the year 2008 has almost completely disappeared from the market. To date, there are only a few official single malt bottlings under the Macduff name, otherwise only copies from independent bottlers are known and available on the market. In particular, the old bottlings from the 1960s and 1970s show exceptional quality and maturity and are now among the most sought-after Scotch whiskies among connoisseurs - a very special dram and excellent Macduff Single Cask Scotch Whisky, which can only be found very rarely today.
