Old Particular – Cameronbridge 28 Year Old Cask Strength (The Spiritual Series) 70cl
Brand: Old Particular (Douglas Laing) | Category: Single Grain Scotch Whisky | ABV: Approx. 52%–55% (varies by cask) | Origin: Lowlands, Scotland | Vol: 700ml

Tasting Profile
Nose: Soft and spiritual, vanilla custard, coconut cream, polished oak, and a whisper of lemon blossom. Light, but layered with quiet richness.
Palate: Silky and expansive. Think white chocolate, honey-drizzled pastries, toasted almonds, and dried tropical fruit. Age brings polish, not weight, it glides across the palate with quiet complexity.
Finish: Long and refined. Notes of crème brûlée, soft spice, and dry oak linger in a graceful fade. A meditative finish, not explosive, but contemplative.

Production Details
This 28 year old single grain was distilled at Cameronbridge, the Lowlands grain powerhouse known for supplying whisky to blended Scotch. Aged in a refill hogshead and bottled at natural cask strength by Douglas Laing under the Old Particular Spiritual Series, it’s unchillfiltered, uncoloured, and highly limited, a rare look into how grain evolves when given patience and pedigree.

Perfect For
Mature whisky collectors and curious connoisseurs. Ideal for nights when you want something subtle, silky, and thought-provoking. This is a bottle that rewards slow drinking and silent appreciation.

Expert Notes
The Spiritual Series focuses on purity and elegance and this Cameronbridge is a standout. Long-aged grain can often surprise even seasoned malt drinkers with its creamy texture, soft sweetness, and oak-driven depth.

Customer Reviews

Interesting Fact
Cameronbridge is Scotland’s oldest grain distillery, founded in 1824 by John Haig and is now a key player behind many famous blends. Rare single grain bottlings like this show what lies beneath the blend: aged grain at its peak.

Serving Suggestions
Enjoy neat in a tulip glass. Let it rest for 10 minutes to open up its softer fruit and vanilla layers. A few drops of water will reveal floral undertones and elevate its creaminess even further. Perfect for pairing with almond desserts or a fine cigar.

Distillery Background
Cameronbridge is the beating heart of Scotland’s grain whisky production. Though most of its output fuels blended giants, independent bottlers like Douglas Laing occasionally spotlight its long-aged casks, revealing an unsung side of Scotch that’s all elegance, no ego.
