The LBD Rally Car Fund 2026
Ever wanted to sponsor a rally car? Probably not, but if you did, now you can, and merely for the price of a rather excellent single sherry cask bottling of 11 year old Craigellachie.
Each person who buys a bottle of this release will get their name written on our car for the 2026 Anglo Caledonian Rally, a multi day rally that crosses the border from England into Scotland.
Unlike almost every other release we do, where we invest back into special casks and great spirit, we promise to squander any profits from this release on rallying! You get a stunning sherried Speyside classic and your name on the car, we get to compete in the Anglo Caledonian Rally in November, it’s a win win for everyone!

Since the first time Andrew arrived on Chris’s farm, when a conversation started over a Peugeot 205 tucked away in a barn, rallying has been a big part of our friendship.
Last year was the first time in nearly 2 decades that we both got back into a rally car. With Chris driving, and Andrew on the notes, we won our class on our first rally back, the 2025 Speyside Stages. With a further class podium since then in only our 3rd rally together at the 2026 Kielder Forest Rally, and some important lessons learned after a rather exciting visit to the trees in the 2025 Galloway Hills rally, we’re excited to take on our biggest rallying challenge together. Through the darkness and changeable conditions of the 2026 Anglo Caledonian Rally.
So sponsor us today and benefit from a rather stunning sherried classic Speysider and be part of the LBD Rally Team.
Hopefully these venn diagrams can help explain.
(Disclaimer – you don’t need to be a rally nerd or a whisky boffin to buy a bottle!)
Available exclusively from our web shop and only 180 bottles available.
** Update a few hours after launching: Half the bottles are already gone so maybe this is a bigger niche than we realised!**
Huge thanks for your incredible support, we’re really looking forward to seeing your names on the car for the 2026 Anglo Caledonian Rally.
