Haig Pinch Finest Blended Scots Whisky (4/5 Quart) - 1950s Bottling

Note: Product has come from a private collection and as such has some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product pictured.

A wonderful old Haig has come our way, probably bottled at twelve years of age and purchased circa 1950 via a Duty Free store. Some indicative notes of the same or similar bottling from whiskyfun.com below.

Other reviews... Colour: amber. Nose: much less caramelly and nutty and more phenolic. Quite some mushrooms, moisture, old wine cellar, freshly crushed mint leaves… Completely different, I guess there was much more Northern Highlanders or island malts. Just superb, with also notes of camphor arising after a while. Mouth: now it’s a little weaker than the Bellows but again, much peatier, with notes of paraffin, dried herbs, eucalyptus, cough syrup… It grows bolder with time, though, and the finish is, again, longer than expected, slightly toffeeish, minty, peaty, tary and mushroomy. Another great surprise. 85 points - whiskyfun.com
