Lot number: 070-1787
Winning bid: £45
Cutty Sark's genesis was a lunch attended by Francis Berry, Hugh Rudd (the partners of Berry Bros. & Rudd) and artist James McBey - who suggested the name. The lighter style was created for the American market, which at the time was still in the grip of Prohibation. The first Scotch whisky to sell 1 million cases in the USA, its distinctive yellow label was initially a printer's error.
Cutty Black is a darker dram with a much smokier flavour thanks to increased proportion of Islay whisky in the blend.
50% ABV / 75cl
