The Dumbarton 26 Year Old 1997 Infrequent Flyers is a rare and evocative Lowland single grain Scotch whisky, distilled at the now-closed Dumbarton Distillery—one of Scotland’s lost whisky legends. Distilled in 1997 and matured for 26 years in a single Pedro Ximénez puncheon (cask #174), this exceptional release was bottled in February 2024 by the Alistair Walker Whisky Company for their celebrated Infrequent Flyers series. Bottled at a bold 53.8% ABV, just 677 bottles were drawn, capturing a rich, indulgent snapshot of a distillery that no longer exists.
