It was later acquired by the parent firm of Whyte \u0026amp; Mackay, and folded into their portfolio in 1973. While its main function was the provision of its blends, as with all of its distilleries, Whyte \u0026amp; Mackay also had faith in its appeal as a single malt. It was introduced in the iconic \"perfume bottles\" at the end of the 1970s. The single malt brand was given more of a focus when the distillery was bought by Angus Dundee in 2000, who also introduced a peated variant called Old Ballantruan in 2005. Bottles from independent labels have also been common over the years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis whisky was distilled in 2005 and aged for 16 years in a single ex-Sherry butt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSansibar Whisky is a German independent bottler, specialising in Scotch, Japanese whisky and rum.
