Usquaebach Grand Whisky of the Highlands Decanter 1980s

Volume: 750ml / ABV: 43%

Usquaebach, derived from the Gaelic "uisge beatha" meaning "water of life," has a rich history dating back to the early 16th century. The brand was immortalized by the Scottish poet Robert Burns in his poem "Tam O’Shanter." The Usquaebach brand, as known today, was launched in 1877 by Ross & Cameron, although the tradition of whisky-making in Scotland dates back much further.
