North British Scotland's largest grain distillery was founded in Edinburgh in 1886 by a consortium of blending companies, including Usher. The goal was to remain independent from the mighty DCL. Years later, however, it came to a cooperation with DCL, but the company remained the only independent Grain whiskey supplier in Scotland. Unusually, but even more interesting, is the filling of a grain whiskey as a single, plus a single barrel with such an old age. A "middleweight", with beautiful notes of caramel, vanilla, heather honey and sweet oak. The taste is for toffee fans, the strong toffee note follow cream and dark caramel candies, then fruity notes of apple, pear and peach, pine nuts and Scottish shortbread .. Bottled on Islay by Bruichladdich Distillery.
This bottling is in barrel strength and of course not cool filtered and free of dyes.
