North British Single Grain Scotch Whisky, 28y 1994
Lowlands, The Whisky Cellar, 750 ml
Description
This Northern British 1994 matured for a full 28 years in a first fill ex-bourbon cask and proves once again how good the style of these single grain whiskies can be, made in the right hands. Already the nose reveals its matured aromas, reminiscent of lemon zest, vanilla cream and caramel wafers. On the palate, accompanied by vanilla ice cream, white chocolate and grated nutmeg, this Single Grain ends in a long finish with hints of vanilla from Madagascar and liquorice. This is an exclusive bottling for Baur au Lac Vins in collaboration with The Whisky Cellar.
Top Recommandation – Best Whisky Shop 2025 Award
The prestigious Whisky Time magazine recommended Baur au Lac Vins as a top address for whiskies as part of the Whisky Shop Awards 2025.

The Whisky Cellar
The Whisky Cellar was founded in 2017 as an independent Scottish bottler by whisky expert Keith Bonnington

Lowlands
Lowlands: Hochprozentig subtil
Gelten die Inseln und das Hochland mit ihren idyllischen Landschaften als Imageträger der Single Malt-Kultur, so sind die dicht besiedelten Lowlands das industrielle Herz Schottlands. Doch auch hier konnte der Niedergang der Whisky-Kultur in den letzten Jahren gestoppt werden. Rund ein halbes Dutzend Destillerien, die sich grösstenteils in den nördlichen Lowlands unweit der Metropolen Glasgow und Edinburgh befinden, sind heute wieder tätig und produzieren mehrheitlich leichte und sehr ausgewogene Brände.
