SINGAPORE, March 03, 2011 (Press-News.org) The world's oldest bottled single malt whisky, Mortlach 70 Year Old / 1938 - which is also the first ever 70-year-old Single Malt Scotch whisky bottled for retail sale, is now available in Singapore.
There are only fifty-four (54) 70cl bottles in the world but only one (1) has been brought to Southeast Asia. A bottle was presented to the Queen of England, and was later transferred to the National Museum of Scotland as part of a display to celebrate Scotland's culture and heritage.
Released under Gordon & MacPhail's 'Generations' brand and bottled at cask strength - 46.1% Alcohol By Volume (ABV), Mortlach 70YO is proudly presented in Singapore by La Maison du Whisky.
This exceptionally rare whisky is undeniably one of the most sought-after whiskies by collectors and enthusiasts around the globe. It will be on display at Fine Spirits by La Maison du Whisky Singapore from now to 15th May 2011 at:
The Pier@Robertson Quay

"We are honored to be offering the opportunity to offer such rare whisky," commented Jeremy Moreau, General Manager, La Maison du Whisky Singapore.
The colour of sun-bleached polished mahogany, this precious liquid is described by whisky connoisseur Charles MacLean, as "a delicate, fresh, vital, fruity whisky, with unusual attributes of waxiness and smokiness".
"The then new-make spirit of Mortlach 70 Year old was filled into the cask on the order of our grandfather John Urquhart. We believe Mortlach 70 Years Old is a malt without comparison. We are confident that whisky lovers or collectors wishing to own a unique piece of Scotland's liquid history will be very excited about Mortlach 70 Year Old," shared David and Michael Urquhart, Joint Managing Directors of Gordon & MacPhail, the custodian of some of Scotland's finest and rarest single malt scotch whiskies.
Out-shining the previous Guinness World Record for the World's Oldest Single Malt Whisky, the Mortlach 70 Year Old is presented in an elegant tear-shaped crystal decanter. Hand-blown by an expert craftsman to ensure an exquisitely flawless finish and topped with an elegant silver stopper bearing minimalist engraving, the bottle is nestled in a stylish silver base and securely framed in a handmade Brazilian Rosewood box. The presentation is completed with a certificate signed by David and Michael Urquhart.
