Product Description

The Winter Series returns this year capturing the magic of the season in four single malt bottlings. From the crisp chill in the air at Hallowe’en to the joyful celebrations of Christmas, Hogmanay and Burns Night, we’ve showing off the season in all its flavours. 

Our Christmas bottling, Mistletoe and whisky, captures the essence of winter warmth. It’s a whisky that brings friends together over a dram amidst the lively festive season.

Tasting Notes

We opened with eau de madeira cake, plus a splash of sweet red wine, chocolate chips and raisin purée on the nose. The Panel particularly enjoyed the palate's transition in flavour and texture: dry, then spiced scones, followed by sweet biscuits and rye bread drizzled with buckwheat honey. Water gave us blueberry taffy, followed by further scents including vanilla white chocolate, rose jam and lime. The palate finished with the same flavour and textural shifts, with an enduring vanilla and plum custard. After 10 years in an ex-bourbon barrel, we transferred this to a first fill American oak PX hogshead for the remainder of its maturation.
