## Summary

Diageo has added two old single malts to its Rare Series, presenting them as whiskies shaped by Scotland’s severe winters. The releases extend a collection first launched in April 2026 and draw on casks selected by master blender Dr Craig Wilson.

The Convalmore 1984 is a 41-year-old whisky from a closed Dufftown distillery, bottled at 45.6 per cent ABV; 310 bottles are available worldwide for £2,900. The Dalwhinnie 1989 is 36 years old, finished for more than four years in Amoroso-seasoned American oak, and bottled at 49.9 per cent ABV; 305 bottles are priced at £1,100. Both are allocated through Diageo’s Private Client network, with registration opening on 3 November 2026.
