Glen Niven Finest Scotch by Douglas MacNiven from 1980s (70cl, 40%)
A Finest Scotch Whisky which was distilled, matured and bottled by Douglas MacNiven & Co.
Douglas MacNiven were incorporated in 1935 as a subsidiary of the MacDonald & Muir (later the Glenmorangie Company). The specialised in blends, and also produced supermarket single malt brands such as this Old Glenn, and Glen Morven. Perhaps their most famous release (or infamous), was the Oddbin's exclusive 80:20 blended malt, produced when MacDonald & Muir accidentally tipped some younger single malt from Glen Moray into some 21 year old Glenmorangie. When LVMH took over the Glenmorangie Company in 2004, they opted to focus solely on their Ardbeg and Glenmorangie single malt brands, and the Douglas MacNiven is now listed as a dormant subsidiary of The Glenmorangie Company.
