Stories
Whisky is a passion to explore. From the history of the spirit to the evolution of the industry, the story of whisky helps fuel that passion. Often, it’s easy to forget that whisky is also a global multibillion dollar industry. The stories of whisky — from news and new releases to in-depth inquires and what goes on behind the label — blend together to help us appreciate the spirit of whisky.
Cutty Sark Teams Up With Caskstrength.net for Special Release
March 28, 2013 – For the first time in its 90-year history, Cutty Sark is releasing a special edition of its blended Scotch whisky in partnership with a whisky web site.
Joel Harrison and Neil Ridley of Caskstrength.com have been working on an A-Z series of Scotch whiskies, starting with single cask releases from Arran and BenRiach distilleries. They selected Cutty Sark for the “C” expression in the series, and worked with Cutty Sark Master Blender Kirsteen Campbell to create a bespoke blend released for Cutty’s 90th anniversary on March 23.
500 bottles of the “Caskstrength and Carry On” Cutty Sark will be available exclusively through Master of Malt at a price of £34.95 ($53 USD). All of the bottles have been signed by Campbell, Harrison, and Ridley, and the first 100 will include a special
Caskstrength and Carry On” bag and a copy of “The Daily Cargo” newspaper produced by Harrison and Ridley.
