Carsebridge 1962. 45 Year Old. Bottled by Hunter Hamilton for their Clan Denny series. Cask number 4132. One of 167 bottles. 700ml. 45.6%. In presentation box.
A mature single grain whisky from the long-closed Carsebridge Distillery, distilled in 1962 and bottled 45 years later by Hunter Hamilton for their highly regarded Clan Denny range. Founded in 1799 and once one of Scotland’s largest grain distilleries, Carsebridge ceased production in 1983, making well-aged examples such as this increasingly scarce and highly sought after.
Drawn from single cask number 4132 and bottled at its natural cask strength of 45.6%, this release yielded just 167 bottles. 45 years of maturation has transformed the spirit into a wonderfully complex old grain whisky, developing rich notes of vanilla, polished oak, coconut, toffee and soft tropical fruits while retaining remarkable elegance and balance.
Carsebridge was founded around the turn of the 19th century and operated initially as a Lowland malt whisky distillery until being converted to grain distillation in the 1850s. Carsebridge joined the fledgling grain whisky cartel Distillers Company Limited on its inauguration in 1877 and by the time of Alfred Barnard’s visit in 1886 was already producing around 6 million litres of grain spirit per annum.
Carsebridge was damaged by a fire in 1902 but was rebuilt after the Great War, and the distillery was expanded in the 1950s and 1960s. Sadly, Carsebridge distillery was mothballed in the whisky crisis of 1983, with most of the buildings demolished in the 1990s. The first official bottling of Carsebridge was a 48-year-old in 2018’s Special Releases; independent Carsebridge is drying up but is usually great value and well worth trying if you can find it.
Hunter Hamilton was a subsidiary of the Douglas Laing independent whisky bottling company, which was founded in the 1940s by Fred Douglas Laing Sr and is now run by Fred Laing Jr and his daughter Cara. Hunter Hamilton was used as a trading name for various Douglas Laing whisky ranges but was discontinued following the departure of Fred Laing’s brother Stewart Laing to found Hunter Laing in 2013.
Hunter Hamilton was most associated with The Sovereign, Clan Denny and Glen Denny ranges of aged malt and grain whiskies. Famous Hunter Hamilton bottlings include a series of extraordinary ancient grain whiskies under the Clan Denny label, a Glen Denny 1966 Bowmore and long-aged Port Ellen and Caol Ila in the Glen Denny and Sovereign ranges.
Whisky-Online Auctions is a public auction for collectible spirits. Lots are offered for sale in their existing condition and bidders are expected to satisfy themselves as to the condition, authenticity, description and suitability of any Lot before placing a bid.
Although a condition report is normally included within the Lot description, prospective bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect Lots in person prior to bidding. If this is not possible and further information is required, bidders should use the "Ask A Question" facility to request clarification or a more detailed condition report before bidding.
All Lots are sold strictly "as seen" and "as described". Any condition report, commentary, dating estimate, provenance information or opinion provided by Whisky-Online Auctions is offered in good faith and represents our assessment at the time of cataloguing. Such information should not be considered a guarantee or warranty.
Whisky-Online Auctions reserves the right to amend, correct, supplement or clarify any catalogue description, image or other Lot information, and to withdraw, combine or divide Lots, at any time prior to the conclusion of the auction. Bidders are responsible for reviewing the final Lot description and any updates issued before bidding.
Due to the age and nature of collectible spirits, natural deterioration may occur over time, including evaporation, ullage, leakage, cork deterioration, capsule degradation, label wear and oxidation. The condition of the liquid, closure, seal and packaging is entirely at the buyer's discretion and risk. Whisky-Online Auctions makes no warranty as to the drinkability, taste, quality or suitability for consumption of any Lot.
All bottles are inspected prior to sale and, unless otherwise stated, are sealed. However, Whisky-Online Auctions cannot guarantee the integrity of any cork, seal, stopper or closure.
Images form part of the description and depict the actual Lot being offered. Where visible, fill levels will be shown in the images and/or description. If the filling level is impossible to determine, such as with ceramics decanters, we will provide an overall weight of the decanter in KG. Information relating to bottle age, bottling period, vintage, provenance, rarity and historical background is provided to the best of our knowledge based on available research and industry experience. Any date or bottling period assigned to a Lot represents our opinion at the time of cataloguing and should not be considered a guarantee or warranty.
Any questions relating to condition, authenticity, provenance, fill level, dating or packaging must be raised before bidding. Questions or concerns raised after a bid has been placed, after the auction has ended, or after a Lot has been won will not constitute grounds for cancelling a bid, refusing payment or disputing the sale.
By placing a bid, bidders confirm that they have reviewed the description and images, sought any additional information they require, and are satisfied with the Lot. All sales are final except where required otherwise by law or under the Whisky-Online Auctions Terms and Conditions.
