Caledonian
The Cally 40 Year Old 1974 Limited Release 2015
(0.75l,
53.3%*)
*please note that the ABV of this bottle may vary
Caledonian used to be the largest distillery in Scotland but was sadly shut down in 1988 after 121 years of operation. There are still treasures left, and some of the forgotten barrels were bottled by independent bottlers before Diageo released this 40-year-old delight under 'The Cally' label as part of their 2015 Special Releases.
The Cally 40YO was distilled in 1974. Its wonderful character takes us time traveling with the rich and sweet nose that evolves into warm wood notes and hints of bitter caramel and cinnamon on the palate—very smooth Scotch with lovely details waiting to be appreciated.

Scotch Whisky is seldom aged in new barrels. Bourbon and Tennessee Whiskey casks are usually used for maturation. In addition to that, Whisky is often matured or finished in various wine casks such as Sherry or Port.
90% of all Scotch Whisky released in the market is a blend. That’s a hell of a lot.
Is Scotch always Scottish? What do you think? Yes. The answer is yes.
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.
Blended Whiskies are the result of years of craftsmanship and dedication. A master blender does not simply wake up one day with a profound ability to create a cohesive and enjoyable liquid. From nosing the liquid to working out quantities of each different grain and malt to go into the blend, a master blender can take years, if not decades, to train.
Categories of Scotch Whisky: Single malt, Blended malt (formerly called Vatted malt), blended, single grain and blended grain Scotch.
