{"product_id":"north-port-brechin-21-year-old-cadenheads-authentic-collection","title":"North Port Brechin 21 Year Old Cadenhead's Authentic Collection","description":"\u003cp\u003eA powerful closed-distillery release, this North Port Brechin 21 Year Old was distilled in December 1976 and bottled in March 1998 by Cadenhead as part of the Authentic Collection. Matured for a full 21 years and bottled at a formidable cask strength of 62% ABV, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire whisky from a distillery that was closed in 1983 and later demolished. For collectors of lost distilleries and classic independent bottlings, this is a highly appealing bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Distillery: North Port Brechin \u003cbr\u003e- Bottler: Cadenhead \u003cbr\u003e- Series: Authentic Collection \u003cbr\u003e- Vintage \/ Distilled: December 1976 \u003cbr\u003e- Bottled: March 1998 \u003cbr\u003e- Age: 21 years old \u003cbr\u003e- Type: Single malt Scotch whisky \u003cbr\u003e- ABV: 62% \u003cbr\u003e- Bottle Size: 70cl \u003cbr\u003e- Release Type: Single cask \u003cbr\u003e- Distillery Status: Closed \/ demolished\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery Background:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- North Port distillery was located in Brechin, Angus \u003cbr\u003e- Later owned by Distillers Company through subsidiary Mitchell Brothers \u003cbr\u003e- Modernised in the 1970s \u003cbr\u003e- Closed in the 1983 distillery cull \u003cbr\u003e- Demolished in 1994 \u003cbr\u003e- The former site is now occupied by a supermarket\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Nose: Dense malt, old oak, dried fruit, spice, and a slightly earthy edge. \u003cbr\u003e- Palate: Powerful and concentrated with pepper, toffee, dark fruit, oak, and cask-strength intensity. \u003cbr\u003e- Finish: Long, warming, and drying with lingering spice and mature malt character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Collect \/ Buy:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Closed and demolished distillery bottling \u003cbr\u003e- Distilled in 1976 and bottled by Cadenhead in 1998 \u003cbr\u003e- Authentic Collection release with strong independent bottler appeal \u003cbr\u003e- Cask strength at 62% ABV adds further interest for serious collectors\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeller Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- North Port Brechin 1976 21 Year Old \u003cbr\u003e- Cadenhead’s Authentic Collection \u003cbr\u003e- Distilled December 1976, bottled March 1998 \u003cbr\u003e- 62% ABV, 70cl \u003cbr\u003e- Single cask release \u003cbr\u003e- Please review photos carefully for fill level, label condition, and overall presentation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBidder Confidence:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Photos form part of the description—please check condition carefully \u003cbr\u003e- Professionally packed for shipping; UK \u0026amp; international shipping available \u003cbr\u003e- Buyer responsible for any local duties\/taxes\/import restrictions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Whiskey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53379963126097,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/4028\/1681\/files\/49714F95-AC8B-4F06-A243-48510B3A3D47.jpg?v=1774553565","url":"https:\/\/whiskysauction.co.uk\/products\/north-port-brechin-21-year-old-cadenheads-authentic-collection","provider":"Whiskys Auction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
