Special Bottlings
During our first year in business we've made some brilliant friends already, which has led to some rather special bottlings!
2023 featured four of these single casks for some of our favourite retail partners and festivals, and there are plenty of exciting collaborations in the pipeline for 2024 too...
Working with Scottish artist, Orla Stevens, we've designed bespoke labels for all these bottlings.

The Jar Troon 10th Birthday Bottling
GLENGLASSAUGH 2014 | MADEIRA CASK
David has been a brilliant ambassador for Fib Whisky in Ayrshire, so when he asked us to provide a 10-Year-Old whisky to celebrate 10 years of him and his father running The Jar in Troon, it was a no-brainer!
​
Fortunately we had one tasty Madeira cask which was laid-down the same summer the shop opened its doors, of which we drew just 79 bottles for this special occasion.
​
The artwork features a wee collage of Troon, focusing on the golf heritage of the town especially as the 2024 Open Championship is being at Royal Troon the same summer (for which I suspect we'll end up camping-out in The Jar!)
Thank you David for a great wee collaboration.
Fife Whisky Festival 2024
OFFICIAL FESTIVAL BOTTLING
GLENGLASSAUGH 2014 | PORT + SAUTERNES FINISH
It was a special moment for us to provide the official bottling for the Fife Whisky Festival 2024.
As our home festival and the absolute favourite of our late founder Aedan, we think he would have been very proud of this achievement, so would like to thank Karen and Justine for inviting us to bottle this especially.
This Port Pipe was actually picked out by Aedan to feature in our regular "Before & After" finishing series, but after the second half was finished in Sauternes we couldn't resist using it for such a special occasion. We're pleased to say all the bottles went over the weekend, so congratulations if you managed to snaffle one!
Watch out for the original half of this cask, as we're giving this a wee finish too for another upcoming special bottling...​
Edinburgh's Whisky Festival 2023
ROYAL BRACKLA 2008 | MUSCAT + FINO FINISH
My Name'5 Doddie Charity Bottling
We were absolutely thrilled to provide the festival bottling for the inaugural Edinburgh’s Whisky Festival at SG Murrayfield, in partnership with My Name'5 Doddie Foundation
​
£30 from each of these 100 limited bottles was donated directly to the foundation started by the big man himself, to help find a cure for the monstrous disease that is MND. This totalled a £3000 donation, which is spectacular!
Whisky Indy Love Fest 2023
PORT DUNDAS 2000
Bottled for 2023's festival at the start of September in Newcastle, this Port Dundas refill hogshead was selected as the festival bottling during a blind NEWAS online tasting. For those who aren't familiar with this huge online whisky community, it's linked below!
​
Karl Glenn who founded the group and organised the festival has been a big supporter of Fib from the start, so it was a pleasure to organise this special festival bottling.
​
Lucky for you we actually have a few bottles left following the festival, which are available from our online shop above!
Spirit of Alba Festival 2023
ROYAL BRACKLA 2008 | MUSCAT FINISH
Spirit of Alba is an absolute gem of a whisky and spirits retailer, slap bang in the middle of Kirkintilloch, just north of Glasgow.
Working in partnership with Craig and Jim who run the shop we picked out this belter of a cask to celebrate the fourth edition of their whisky festival, the third anniversary of the shop, and the eighth anniversary of the business!
​
Craig even designed this beautiful label!
Head over to their website below to read the hardcore tasting notes, and to grab one of these 168 bottles before they're all gone...
The Wee Couper of Fife
Inaugural Release
CAMERONBRIDGE 2006
PEATED CASK + ROUSSANNE FINISH
If you've taken a wee trip round the East Neuk of Fife, then you may already have met the Wee Couper. If not, this treasure trove is a must-stop destination next time you're near Anstruther! Just make sure you have a driver...
​
As our biggest supporter right from the start, we were absolutely delighted to provide Tom with his first exclusive bottling for the shop. This one's only available in-store, and we promise it's worth the trip!
