BP Old Rhosdhu 1994 (Refill HH) 30yr 46.7% ABV

$395.00

Old Rhosdhu is a name that is often overlooked when people discuss outstanding whiskies. We can’t really blame them though, since Loch Lomond doesn’t make it anymore! The first production of Old Rhosdhu began soon after the distillery’s opening in 1966 and the last production was around 2000. More commonly seen as a single malt from independent bottlers, we’re proud to join this elite club with what we believe is a spectacular bottling. The spirit has the typical fruity and floral characteristics that reflect the Loch Lomond production process.

Distilled in 1994, this whisky has been in the same refill bourbon hogshead for over 30 years. This is a whisky that has kept its spirit character over the past three decades, while patiently infusing lovely notes from the refill bourbon hogshead to complement it perfectly.

“Rh8” is our fourth limited edition release in the Chess series. This whisky, like the chess piece represented on its label, has patiently evolved over time. In ancient forms of chess the “rook” has been represented by a chariot, a turret or a ship. The ferocity, depth and stability of this piece is depicted in the “Black Rook”, another wonderful label by Toronto-based artist Alexander Perkins. We know this is going to be one people will search out and look back on fondly.

This single malt scotch whisky is non-chill filtered and naturally coloured, yielding 280 bottles at a cask strength of 46.7% ABV.
