This bottling of a 30-year-old blended Scotch whisky called Highland Queen 1561 was produced by the Highland Queen Scotch Whisky Company to celebrate the company's 120th anniversary. The whisky consists of malts from 1982 and grains from 1978/1979, received a finish in ex-sherry casks and was bottled in 2013.
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.
