This single cask bottling of a 17-year-old Ballechin (peated Edradour) single malt as an original bottling of the distillery was produced under the name Cigar Malt as a bottling for the 10th anniversary of Götterfunken TV. The whisky was distilled in 2005, matured in a first-fill ex-Bordeaux hogshead and was bottled in 2023 in 265 bottles.
Edradour (Gaelic for between two waters) is located east of Pitlochry and was for a long time the smallest whisky distillery in Scotland (it was expanded in February 2018). Whisky has been produced since 1823, the first bottling as a single malt took place in 1986, and since 2002 the distillery has belonged to the independent Scottish bottler Signatory. The distillery was extensively expanded and enlarged in 2014-2018.
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.
