Has anyone compared the two batches and can offer guidance as to which is the best out of the two? My currently open (and only batch tasted) A'bunadh bottle is Batch 50.

Not had the batch 53 but 52 is good.. I can't believe 53 will not be so I'd buy both 😀

5-12-1908 from memory batch 32 was not amongst the great ones so I would say, no not worth keeping.

Not tried 53 yet.

I already did, I'm trying to work out which to give for a 40th birthday present (and before anyone asks, I was going to give the best!!).

I had batch 32, a few said it had sulphur taints.. I didn't pick it up.. 32 is when they changed packaging so although it is now bringing a better price it is still worth drinking.. As for giving one of the batches for a gift I think any of them would be well appreciated..
