Inchgower 1989 (The Whisky Agency) 29 Year Old Single Malt Whisky is a rare, high-aged whisky released in 2019 by the renowned German independent bottler The Whisky Agency (TWA).
This whisky is typically a collaboration between TWA and the well-known Japanese independent bottler Three Rivers. Because most of the whisky from the Inchgower distillery is used to blend Bell's Scotch whisky, very few high-aged single cask single malt whiskies are released to the market, making this 29-year-old exceptionally valuable to connoisseurs and collectors.
