The story behind this blended whisky's curious name goes like so: a rare blend of 18 single malt and 4 single grain Scotch whiskies was found in 10 casks in a warehouse in 1958. It was distilled in 1954 and used a recipe that dated back to the 1800s. In 1966, a quantity was bottled for the warehouse owners and a close group of friends. A total of 6 accountants and lawyers made it possible, hence "Syndicate 58/6." It aged for 12 years using the "solera" method and finished its last year of aging in Oloroso Sherry butts.

I received this as part of a Master of Malt Drinks by the Dram gift set at Christmas. Because it wasn't listed on Distiller at the time, I didn't write a review and I don't have my tasting notes. So, unfortunately, I cannot recall any specifics, except that my impression was very favorable. If I find a bottle down the road, I will re-review and re-rate.
