Volume: 0.7 litres | Alcohol content: 46.3% | Chill filtration: No

Special Features:

This Invergordon was distilled on 1 November 1974 and bottled for Master of Malt’s Masterpiece range on 1 June 2025 after 50 years of maturation. It matured in refill bourbon hogsheads and bourbon barrels.

A total of 296 bottles were filled at 46.3% ABV. The whisky is non-chill-filtered and contains no added colouring. Bold grain notes, vanilla and caramel meet warming spices and mature oak.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The nose combines bold grain notes and warming spices with polished old oak. Tart gooseberry, butter fudge and vanilla then emerge.
• Palate: The palate reveals syrupy oatcake, robust oak spice, silky caramel, sticky sponge cake and warming nutmeg. Spicy hints of a cigar box and grippy old oak add further depth.
• Finish: Warming ginger, pepper and nutmeg linger in the finish alongside distinctive grain, toffee, vanilla fudge and pronounced oak depth.

Distillery/Bottler:

Invergordon Distillery was founded in 1959 and began operating in 1961. Scotland’s northernmost grain distillery uses column stills over 50 feet tall. Its mash is made with maize, malted and unmalted barley, and Scottish wheat.

This Highland single grain comes from Invergordon. Master of Malt released the 50-year-old whisky as part of its own Masterpiece range and bottled this edition.
