Cutty Sark (whisky)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cutty Sark is a range of blended Scotch whiskies, owned by Berry Bros & Rudd, the London wine and spirits merchant. The whisky was created on March 20, 1923, with the home of the blend considered to be at Glenrothes distillery, in the Scottish Highlands. The name comes from the River Clyde-built clipper ship Cutty Sark, whose name came from the Scots language term cutty-sark.
The Tall Ships' Races were for long known as the Cutty Sark Tall Ships' Races under the terms of sponsorship by the brand.
[edit] Bottlings

The range also includes superior and premium blends, currently identified by the age (of the youngest whisky in the blend) as 12 years old, 18 year old, and 25 year old.
