Catto's Extra Special 11 Year Old Bottled 1940s - Julius Loeser & Co 75cl / 43%

A bottle of Catto's 11 Year Old Extra Special Liqueur Blended Scotch Whisky. This was blended and bottled by James Catto & Co., and imported to the US market by Julius Loeser & Co., Chicago. We estimate this was bottled in the 1940s.

The back label reads: Supplied on all the Liners of the P & O Coy. continuously since 1874, numerous other Shipping Companies, HM Transports, and to many Clubs and Officers' Messes at home and abroad.

This bottle is from the collection of Bill Pigati, whose family have owned Del Rio, a famous restaurant near Chicago, since the 1920s.

The majority of the bottles in the collection were purchased in the 1940s and early 1950s, and it is mainly comprised of blended Scotch whiskies, which were very popular during the period.
