The Glenrothes Extraordinary Cask Collection

From Shanken:

Berry Bros. & Rudd’s single malt Scotch brand The Glenrothes has released the first expression in its Extraordinary Cask Collection. A 1970 vintage, the debut entry is packaged in a unique, limited edition crystal decanter and leather case from U.K.-based design company Brandhouse. Only 179 bottles of The Glenrothes Single Cask 1970 are available, priced at $5,000 a bottle. The series, created through the discovery of a private collector’s Glenrothes vintage casks—eventually will feature additional expressions dating from the late 1960s and early 1970s. Currently a 10,000-case brand, The Glenrothes is marketed in the U.S. by San Francisco-based Anchor Distilling.
