A single cask (single barrel) means that the whisky in the bottle comes from just one cask and was not mixed with another whisky from e.g. another barrel. Because the contents come from a single barrel, the number of bottles depends on the size of the barrel and the evaporation of the product (called the Angel's Share), the number of bottles is limited (and often numbered) and no new bottles of this particular reference are released on the market. That also makes this Tomintoul 1969 42y (The Perfect Dram) single cask a rather unique specimen.
