| To showcase the breadth of their portfolio, back in 2001, they introduced a series called Special Releases – which has become one of the hotly awaited yearly events on the whisky scene every autumn. Twenty years later, the company decided to raise the game, and arrived with the Prima & Ultima series to showcase their very best cask across their vast distillery landscape. |
