RNLI Charity Islay Sea Collection Display Cask

All money raised from the sale of this lot will go to charity!

A group of 7 men from the North Coast hatched a novel way to carry out some fundraising for the Portrush and Islay volunteer Lifeboat crews recently. As a group of keen sailors and avid supporters of the RNLI and the Scottish islands they wanted to marry the two passions together and have some fun along the way. The team decided to row to Islay to recreate a journey made over the generations using only manpower to raise money for the Lifeboats. On returning home team member and local architect, Graeme Montgomery, then set about using a stave from each distillery to design and create a unique cask to display the bottles of whisky. The source of each stave is marked and the overall effect is a truly unique display of Islay whisky called the ‘Islay Sea Collection’. The team created a short film to give a flavour of their adventure and how the cask was made.
