A handsome Glen Garioch from independent bottler Single & Single, matured for 10 years in a first-fill ex-bourbon barrel.

With this whisky, tradition is there to be toyed with. From the honey-sweet nose all the way through to a palate packed with cinnamon, fruit and barley, and on to its long herbal finish, this dram reinvents and refreshes. What you have here is an era-agnostic celebration of classic styles; an age-old approach that focuses firmly on the future.

Single & Single Whiskies have built a reputation on finding and bottling exceptional whiskies, because they are infinitely curious, Single & Single have decided to expand on their blueprint and offer an alternate take on their uncompromising ethos.

They call it the Alter Ego Collection, a range of whiskies imbued in quality, singularity and charm, but distinguished by younger, more exuberant whiskies. What you end up with is the unorthodox side of Single & Single, a dram that appeals to newer whisky lovers. Each expression in this collection is limited and sourced from acclaimed malt and grain distilleries.

Drawn from more than one cask, these are bottled at a higher than-normal ABV, and they prioritise unique maturation processes in order to bottle liquid that lights up the eyes, and makes lasting impressions.
