In the world of fine spirits, this is an exceptional find: the very last bottle from 1970 in BB&R’s prestigious Extraordinary Cask Release series, which kicked off in 2012. It’s a piece of history, bearing the signatures of two notable figures in the industry – Lizzy Rudd, the Chair of Berry Bros. & Rudd, and Ronnie Cox, the former Glenrothes Heritage Director.
Back in 2012, Berry Bros. & Rudd Spirits embarked on a unique journey, releasing single casks from The Glenrothes Distillery, with a specific focus on the 1968, 1969, and 1970 vintages. What makes this bottle particularly remarkable is not just its age and provenance but also the exquisite craftsmanship that goes into its presentation. The grenade-like decanter, a true work of art, is expertly crafted by none other than Glencairn Crystal, adding the final touch of elegance to this already extraordinary piece of liquid history.
