WHISKY TASTING NOTES
Nose: Lots of sweetness on the nose, with toasted almonds & floral, heathery overtones. A wave of peat comes through but is veiled in damp slate and sea air.
Palate: The heather persists, with other floral spices giving way to honeyed sweetness & some subtle dark chocolate. Citrus fruits develop over time, along with the peat which takes the form of bonfire smoke.
Finish: Warm & drying, the finish is long & smoky. Green notes persist, along with the oak tannins & the delicate spices.

About our Bottles
For us, one of the best aspects of a good single malt whisky is its ability to bring people together. So when we created our bottles we wanted to design something that felt like a decanter - meant to be passed around a group of friends, new and old, as they enjoy sharing a dram together.
Our bottles have a good weight to them, making them feel substantial and giving them the presence a good whisky deserves. We've offset the label, so that the whisky is centre stage; it shows the natural colour of the liquid clearly and proudly.
The label clearly and transparently shows you all the key information, including: the nature of the liquid (for example, single malt scotch) where it was distilled; how old it is; and how strong it is. All our liquids are natural colour and non chill filtered.
Our bottles come in two sizes: 700ml, which is our standard for our main releases; and for some of our expressions, 100ml minis.
