Description

The Scotch Malt Whisky Society was founded in Edinburgh in 1983 by Phillip 'Pip' Hills who, while travelling around Scotland in the 1970s, fell in love with whiskies drawn straight from the cask. After he expanded his syndicate the Society was purchased by Glenmorangie PLC in 2004. In 2015, the Society was sold back to private investors. In June 2021, the private owners floated the holding company. This particular release, SMWS 53.446 'Blowtorched Mexican Mousse', is a 14 Year Old Caol Ila, distilled in 2008 and bottled in 2023 to celebrate the Islay Whisky Festival 2023. It was matured with a finish in a 1st fill ex-PX Sherry Hogshead. Only 234 bottles were produced.
