Prima & Ultima First Release
The First Release
The first and last bottlings of exquisite and elusive single malts. The first set in a series of magnificent, incredibly rare single vintage malt whiskies from Diageo’s great breadth of historic distilleries. Each is the first and last of its kind, drawn from a tiny number of highly sought-after casks with their own story to tell.
The Curator
Dr Jim Beveridge OBE
Eight single vintage malts were chosen to open this inaugural collection personally selected by former Johnnie Walker Master Blender and scientist, Dr Jim Beveridge OBE. Beveridge has chosen whiskies that represent eight distinct pivots in the history of Scotch, each tell a tale of heritage and craftsmanship.
“The whiskies in this collection are the first and last expressions of their kind. They are my ultimate single malts.”Jim Beveridge, Master Blender OBE
Behind the Collection
The collection of eight is unrepeatable and represent key changes in the history of Scotch production. They each tell a tale of heritage and craftsmanship, marking moments in time that make these precious casks, firsts and lasts of their kind.
