Scottish Liqueur Centre - Carn Mor Celebration of the Cask - 1982

At the Scottish Liqueur Centre, in Perthshire, not only do we make fine Scottish Liqueurs such as Bruadar and Columba Cream. We also bottle our own whiskies. What makes our whisky different from the average run of the mill dram, is that we bottle whisky without the chill-filtering process. This retains all the oils and proteins that are so essential to the flavour.

The Scottish Liqueur Centre has recently launched six new whiskies. By retaining the original name of our own brand bottlings; Carn Mor, we have built on, and brought something quite special to this fine Scottish brand.

Included in this collection is the Carn Mor Celebration of the Cask, distilled at Linlithgow from 1982. This whisky was distilled on 6 October 1982 and has lived in a sherry butt cask ever since. Bottled on 2 June 2008 here at the Scottish Liqueur Centre, this whisky has an abv of 61.8%.

There are only 582 bottles available, so if you wish to find out more about how to get hold of one, please call us on 01738 787044 or email us at info@scottish-liqueur-centre.co.uk

Scottish Liqueur Centre - Carn Mor Celebration of the Cask - 1965

At the Scottish Liqueur Centre, in Perthshire, not only do we make fine Scottish Liqueurs such as Bruadar and Columba Cream. We also bottle our own whiskies. What makes our whisky different from the average run of the mill dram, is that we bottle whisky without the chill-filtering process. This retains all the oils and proteins that are so essential to the flavour.

The Scottish Liqueur Centre has recently launched six new whiskies. By retaining the original name of our own brand bottlings; Carn Mor, we have built on, and brought something quite special to this fine Scottish brand.

Included in this collection are two Carn Mor Celebration of the cask whiskies, distilled by Glen Grant Distillery in 1965. These whiskies were bottled on 29 March 1965, and have lived in a hogshead cask ever since then. They were bottled here at the Scottish Liqueur Centre on 2 June 2008 at a strength of 47.5% and 46.4% abv respectively. These whiskies came from two seperate casks, with cask 2136 producing 121 bottles and cask 2140 producing 155 bottles.

These whiskies are therefore in very short supply. If you wish to find out more about how you can buy a bottle of Carn Mor Glen Grant 1965, please call us on 01738 787044 or email at info@scottish-liqueur-centre.co.uk

Scottish Liqueur Centre – Supporting local industry

At the Scottish Liqueur Centre, we are proud to support local industry. Our liqueurs are produced using local ingredients; Bruadar is made using honey from Scarlett’s of Meigle, Perthshire, and Columba Cream is made from cream from Graham’s Dairies, in Bridge of Allan.

We also stock many other local suppliers’ products in our visitor centre, such as honey from Heather Hills Honey Farm, and Jewellery from Linda Lambert. Furthermore, at our Columba Cream Café in the visitor centre, give in to temptation and try our delicious soups and cakes made by a team of dedicated home bakers.

If you are interested in buying local produce why not visit Perth Farmers Market on Saturday 7th June? It will take place on King Edward Street, Perth and will start around 9am. From slabs of fresh red meat and slippery oysters to green, leafy veg to home made cakes, pies and wines - you will find everything you need to create delicious meals. If you're not sure what you're after, need to be inspired or want to know more about what you are eating, have a chat with the stallholders who can advise on ideas, cooking methods and traceability.

Bottling Columba Cream Liqueur at the Scottish Liqueur Centre



Bottling Columba Cream Liqueur at the Scottish Liqueur Centre

All our liqueurs are bottled on site at the Scottish Liqueur Centre in Perthshire, Scotland. Our most famous liqueur is Columba Cream, which you can see in the video above being bottled by Steve and Mike.
Our liqueur is named after St Columba, who in 564AD founded the Christian monastery on the Island of Iona, which has since been used as the burial place of Scottish Kings. Columba Cream is a quite delectable concoction based on a centuries-old family recipe for brose, a traditional Scots drink which was made daily (until the advent of refrigerators) using ingredients readily available on the crofts - whisky, oatmeal, cream, sometimes honey, sometimes fruit. While there is no official record that St Columba ever tasted our brose it is more than likely that he and his monks brewed up something similar on a regular basis.
Columba Cream is available from our online store at www.scottish-liqueur-centre.co.uk
