One of the most sought-after whiskies in this range is the MRC: 01. Bottled at 59.2% alcohol and in limited numbers, the 2010 Port Charlotte MRC: 01 is distilled from 100% Scottish barley from the region of Invernesshire. This sweet and fruity alcohol has spent time filling American whisky casks and second filling in French wine barrels. These constituent parts were combined and aged for an additional year in the best French oak barrels from the left bank of Bordeaux.
