House of Hazelwood, The Transatlantic
The Transatlantic was released in the 2024 Legacy Collection and stands as one of House of Hazelwood’s most unconventional bottlings. Aged for 33 years, the whisky spent its final eight years in virgin American oak, an approach rarely seen in Scotch whisky. Bottled at high strength, it delivers bold vanilla, caramel and oak spice, with a profile that challenges traditional Scotch expectations. It reflects Hazelwood’s willingness to prioritise flavour impact over convention.
