Monster whisky bottle one for the book

If you're limited to just one bottle of Scotch, the distillers at Tomintoul, the highest village in the Highlands, have come up with just the thing for you.

They've made it into the Guinness Book of World Records by producing the world’s largest whisky bottle for their Tomintoul Speyside Glenlivet Single Malt. It holds the equivalent of 150 regular bottles.

It recently was filled by hand at the distillery in August with 105.3 litres of the 14-year-old whisky, and stands just under five ffet tall. The bottle now is on permanent display at the Clockhouse in the Tomintoul village square.
