70cl • 55.7%
Our Distillery Editions allow us to showcase some of the more unusual and unique aspects of our whisky-making, and this release is no different. Distillery Edition 7 is distilled in our unique Straight Neck stills using 100% unpeated malted barley, taken at a wide cut point, and uses Chardonnay wine yeast during fermentation, amplifying the tropical fruit notes created during distillation.
The whisky is then matured for 12 years in refill Bourbon barrels, creating a vibrant single malt rich in tropical flavours, with notes of pineapple, coconut, and a hint of lime.
The Distillery Edition series allows our dedicated whisky-making team, led by our Master Blender Michael Henry, to experiment with processes and ingredients to unlock new and captivating flavours. Just like our previous six sold-out editions, this seventh release showcases our distillery's innovation and whisky-making expertise.
This single malt whisky is distilled in our unique Straight Neck stills using 100% unpeated malted barley and is taken at a wide cut point, resulting in a low collection strength of 65%. In addition to the unusual lower collection strength, Michael has opted for a combination of Chardonnay wine yeast and distillers' yeast during fermentation, which accentuates the tropical fruit notes created during distillation.
Matured for 12 years in second-fill Bourbon barrels, three casks were selected and vatted together, then returned to their original casks for four weeks of marrying before bottling. The result is a vibrant, fruit-forward single malt, rich with tropical notes of pineapple and mango, caramel sweetness, coconut, and a hint of lime.
Bottled at 55.7% ABV, non-chill filtered, and with natural colour to keep things as nature intended.
