We seek out the great distillates produced in bygone eras, using production techniques rarely seen in the modern day:

• on-site distillery floor maltings
• deep-cut highland peat
• forgotten, flavour-rich barley varieties
• longer fermentations using delicate brewer's yeasts
• direct-fired stills
• worm tubs
• well-worn refill casks
• impeccable sherry casks of a quality no longer available

If you’ve never experienced these immense old style whiskies then you’ll be amazed at the variety and depth of flavour; the way they differ to their modern counterparts is both beautiful and revelatory.

This is why The Whisky Show: Old & Rare exists.
