World’s Largest Whisky Bottle
A giant bottle of single malt 14-year-old Tomintoul Speyside Glenlivet Scotch has made the Guinness Book of Records.
The almost 28 gallon bottle (105 liters) was hand filled, and then sealed with a huge cork that had to be hammered into place.
Duncan Baldwin, Tomintoul Distillery’s brand development director, said: “We are delighted to have been successful in achieving this record as ratified by Guinness Book of World Records.
“It was quite nerve-racking, filling and labelling such a large vessel by hand and especially so when sealing the bottle with the largest cork I have ever seen as it had to be hammered in with a mallet but the exercise went very well.
“It should be a great talking point for Tomintoul Distillery, the village and its visitors.”
The bottle will be on permanent display at the Clockhouse in the village square at Tomintoul village.
