Description

The Alchemist Beverage Company was founded by Gordon Wright, who was the former owner and Sales Director of Springbank and Bruichladdich. After 3 decades of promoting Single Malt Whisky all over the world, he decided to create his own company. Alchemist was originally created as an independent bottling company to bottle some of the finest Single Malt whiskies across the land. This Hazelburn 1998 8 Year Old is an unpeated, triple-distilled single malt from Springbank distillery, distilled in 1998 and bottled in 2007 by Alchemist.
