With a team of whisky experts, the final selection is the product of collaborations with several different suppliers, service providers, and trade partners. Chapter 7 has three series of expressions: Monologue, Anecdote, and Prologue. The first are unique single casks, the second once-in-a-lifetime small batches or married atypical whiskies, the third consists of younger malts. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nMonologue #22 is a single-cask Highland single malt that comes from Blair Athol, one of Diageo's workhorse distilleries. Built in 1798 in Pitchlory, a lot of the whisky ends up in Bell's Blended Scotch. Mostly matured in ex-bourbon casks, it's rare to find a Blair Athol that was aged in a wine cask. This cask was just that ― presumably a 2nd or 3rd fill one. Bottled in 2021 without chill-filtration or added coloring, it's a deliciously complex 106-proof single malt. 258 bottles were produced.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGrab your bottle of this fruity 12-year-old whisky today!                            \u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Chapter 7\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            Chapter 7 is an independent bottler's brand created in 2014, in Switzerland by Selim Evin, as a passion project dedicated to whisky. Inspired by his grandfather’s love of whisky, Evin started off by bottling single casks from Scotland's lesser known distilleries. Whiskies that laid foundations for well known brands, but where nevertheless, not very well known. Driven by sheer curiosity, Evin uncovered whiskies from Scotland, Ireland, and eventually began vatting them, \"exploring the fascinating world of blending.\" \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nChapter 7’s Master blenders marry the hand-selected spirit in large vats. Selim Evin travels to Scotland and Ireland to hand select single casks from the inventories of the world’s greatest distilleries. Then he custom bottles each one with its own story. Every cask of Chapter 7 Whisky has its own unique character. From the wood, age, temperature, to its location in the rickhouse.                                        \u003cdiv class=\"brand-link\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/?brand_dropdown=3110\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExplore all Chapter 7 bottles \u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Scotch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all!
