Whisky Focus - Whyte & Mackay 30 Year Old For Less Than £15

Whyte & Mackay 30 year old promotion has shoppers going wild in the isles.

Whisky lovers wanting to enjoy a dram may get more for their money this week as Whyte & Mackay releases hundreds of bottles of Whyte & Mackay 30 year old, for the price of the Whyte & Mackay Special blend.

And to celebrate the promotion, Master Blender Richard Paterson has been busy filming the hilarious spoof video below which shows him sneaking into Whyte & Mackay’s Grangemouth bottling plant to dispense 30 year old liquid into bottles of Special after being denied the chance to give away the 30 year old for free.

All Whyte & Mackay whiskies are crafted in exactly the same way, using a unique double marriage process to ensure a smooth quality across all blends. However, Whyte & Mackay lovers buying a Special may well be in for something extra special as Master Blender, Richard Paterson, has secretly bottled the 30 years old in 250 selected bottles of the Whyte & Mackay’s flagship brand, Special.

That means that lucky consumers up and down the country may get a bottle of the best blended whisky in the world (worth around £150), for the price that they normally pay for a bottle of Special.

Each of the 250 winning bottles has a unique cap, meaning not only is the bottle filled with 30 year old liquid, but the lucky drinker will also be sent an additional bottle of Whyte & Mackay 30 year old, complete in a presentation case.

Richard Paterson comments: "I’ve been blending whisky for 40 years and I think the 30 year old is one of my finest creations, in fact, I thought it was so good I wanted to share it with Whyte & Mackay’s loyal fans. "

"If you’re not one of the lucky ones to pick up a winning bottle, you can rest assured that your Special has been created with as much love and attention as 30 year old, each uses the same double-marriage process to give it consistency and smoothness."
