Bell's Extra Special (old bottling) Whisky

Bell’s Extra Special (old bottling) 8 Year Old is a classic blended Scotch whisky, made from a broad selection of malt and grain whiskies drawn from Scotland’s four whisky-producing regions. Matured in oak casks for a minimum of 8 years and then skilfully blended, it’s designed to be smooth, approachable, and consistently enjoyable, with a profile that leans into rich fruit, sweet toffee, and a warming finish. We estimate this example was bottled in the 1990s, adding extra appeal for collectors of older blends and vintage-era presentations.
