Cheers, Your Majesty: The £100,000-a-bottle Jubilee whisky that has been maturing for the Queen’s 60 years on the throne
Blended malt and grain 'Diamond Jubilee' whisky was distilled in 1952 and finally bottled yesterday
Sixty years ago, as the Queen was preparing to accede to the throne, distillers on her Balmoral estate were taking care of preparations of their own.
And yesterday, as Her Majesty celebrated 60 years of her reign, the final touches were put on a whisky especially produced to mark the anniversary.
The blended malt and grain 'Diamond Jubilee' whisky, which was distilled in 1952, was finally bottled at the Royal Lochnagar distiller.
Only 60 bottles were made at the distillery on the Balmoral Estate in Ballater, Aberdeenshire. One will be gifted to the Queen and the others will be sold around the world for £100,000 each.
