The 69th vatting was selected as the best. Fans of the mini-series, Band of Brothers, may recall Captain Nixon drowning his sorrows with a bottle of Vat 69.

Tasting Notes

"The nose shows caramel, lemon zest, and soft wood spices. The palate has a touch of menthol and cinnamon and there's an average malty quality and body to the whisky, not too rich, not too thin. The finish is dry, but soft. Though you wouldn't necessarily write home about this blended whisky, it is serviceable."
