The Rare Malts are a series of Diageo cask-strength releases, designed to show off some of the lesser known whiskies in its empire. Now discontinued they are much sought after by collectors. All bottlings are cask strength, and un-chill filtered.

Founded in 1820, and originally called Townhead, the distillery sent most of its life under the name North Port, although there are several bottlings under the name Brechin.

Another victim of the 1983 cull, the distillery's output was mostly used for blending.

Distilled: 1979

Bottled: October 1999

Age: 20 years old

61.2% ABV / 70cl
