 +==== Blended Scotch Whisky ====
 +
 +This recipe is an inspired recreation of an original bottling of Hankey Bannister Scotch Whisky, made between 1924 and 1928 and re-discovered, perfectly preserved. Our master blender has carefully recreated this antique liquid. This lost classic has a full, sweet flavour and a delicate hint of smoke. Undoubtedly a rare taste of history and a fine spirit of true character.
