Bruichladdich
Valinch 30 Year Old 1970 'I Was There'
(0.5l,
47.3%*)
*please note that the ABV of this bottle may vary
A secular resurrection that brought back some of the finest Scotch sips around happened in 2001. This series commemorates the first distillation of the re-opening of the famous distillery, and it’s called - Valinch I was there! (but not that day).
Today tho, there are just 250 bottles of this spectacular Single Malt in the world. A number that should spark some serious interest in a collector’s mind. Rare, a tad sweet, and full of history. Just like a delicacy should be.
*This bottle is a collector’s item; we will not be able to entertain any refunds or exchanges.
**Individual orders are limited to one item per person, as we wish to allow everyone to participate.
***Any kind of transit damage is insured and will be reimbursed.

Whisky distilling goes way back to 1494 when the first recorded batch was made by a posse of monks who acquired about 60 gallons of barley and decided to turn it into "aqua vitae". They created the first 1,500 bottles of Scotch in History.
Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made in Scotland using a pot still distillation process at a single distillery, with malted barley as the only grain ingredient. It must be matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years (most Single Malts are matured longer, though).
First-class Whiskies are taxed not only by the state but also by the angels. This refers to the 4% of Whisky that evaporates from the barrels every year, a phenomenon known as the angel’s share.
Scotland is home to more than 20 million casks of maturing Whisky. That’s four for every person living there. Nuts!
Categories of Scotch Whisky: Single malt, Blended malt (formerly called Vatted malt), blended, single grain and blended grain Scotch.
Can Scotch go bad? Technically, an unopened bottle of Scotch can last forever. Air is the only true evil to Whisky; once the liquid is oxidized it is no longer immortal. After opening, as long as you store your Whisky in a cool, dry place, it will last another 5 years.
