AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A rare and authentic vintage Cardhu 12 Year Old Pure Malt Scotch Whisky, purchased in 1972.
This is the 1 Litre / 43% edition with the early 1970s label design, which includes the “1970” reference on the artwork – confirming this as an original bottling from that decade (see photo).
Key Details
Brand: Cardhu
Age: 12 Years
Volume: 1 L (1000 ml)
Alcohol: 43% ABV
Bottling Era: Early 1970s – confirmed by label
Purchased: 1972
Fill level: High
Seal: Fully intact
Box: Original box included (see photos)
Condition: Excellent for age – kept in a dark and dry storage environment
This bottle is highly collectible due to the larger 1-litre format, the higher 43% strength (not the later 40%), and the vintage label design from the early 1970s. Ideal for collectors of Speyside whisky, historical bottlings, and pre-brand redesign Cardhu releases.
