Almost overlooked at the back of the distillery, a remarkable single cask was quietly waiting to be discovered. Now, this one-off release is ready to shine: 18yr single malt, aged in American Oak ex-bourbon barrels, with a robust 50.4% ABV. With only 100 bottles available anywhere in the world, this exceptional whisky will never be repeated—once sold out, it’s gone for good. This exclusive bottle will be available only at Whisky Live SA, taking place 7-9 November at The Firs, Rosebank, and priced at R3,495 (including VAT).

Andy Watts is not just a master distiller—he is a global whisky icon. His accolades include five World’s Best Whisky titles, the honour of being named World Whisky Ambassador of the Year, and recognition as the Global Icon of Whisky Master Distiller / Master Blender as well as being inducted into the global whisky Hall of Fame in 2021. Over the years, he has also earned a host of trophies, gold, and double gold medals for the exceptional whiskies he has crafted. This is your chance to own a true collector’s item, personally signed by one of the world’s greatest whisky makers.
