This single cask bottling of a 30-year-old Dumbarton single grain whisky by independent bottler Hunter Laing was specially produced in The Sovereign series to mark the 10th anniversary of thewhiskybarrel.com. The whisky was distilled in 1987, matured in a refill ex-bourbon cask and was bottled at cask strength in 2017 with 160 individually numbered bottles.
Dumbarton was a distillery in Dumbarton, West Dunbartonshire, Scotland, which was founded in 1938 by Hiram Walker & Sons for the production of grain whisky. It closed in 2002 and the buildings were demolished in 2005.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
