An expression crafted by the Distillery Manager, Bob Dalgarno, "for his own enjoyment and bottled at his prefered strength".
The expression is a mixture of European ex-sherry butts, balanced with American ex-sherry casks and ex-bourbon casks. A variety of barley, the Golden Promise, is used, which is slightly less common these days.
The Classic Travel Range was a second collaboration between the distillers and the world-renowned photographer, Nick Vassey. The range is bottled in four labels, featuring Vassey's four X-ray work:
1920s Locomotive.
1930s Ocean Liner.
1930s Propeller Plane.
1940s Roadster.
Released specially for travel retails.
Set of four bottles.
