Distiller Notes
2018 San Francisco World Spirits Competition Gold Medal Winner.
A delicious harmony of toffee-sweetness and deep, fruity notes, our golden amber whisky incorporates additional waves of smoky barbecue heat ending in a delightfully drying finish. This unique spirit is exclusively composed of some of the finest Single Malt Scotch Whiskies from the heart of Scotland, resulting in a harmonious blend with a real depth of flavor and character worthy of its minimum 15-year maturation.

Tasting Panel
Soft, mellow nose; smooth and elegant with carefully balanced flavors that range from toasty and intense to spicy and rich to soft and lush; a lovely blended malt that brings many elements to your glass; charming, polished and long.

Whisky Advocate
Butterscotch and smoke, with rewarding maritime and medicinal characters balancing the sweetness, candied peel, poached apricots, and lemon squeezed over warm, sugar-sprinkled pancakes. The smoke billows up around the citrus-tinged caramel, cotton candy, marmalade, and dried fruit. Wave after wave of spices ride the smoke trails through the finish, carrying along some residual caramel sweetness.
Originally created as a lighter alternative to Single Malts to appeal to the Americans during Prohibition, Blended Scotch Whiskies are a mix of both grain and malt whiskies that have been sourced from multiple distilleries and aged a minimum of three years in oak barrels. Nine out of every ten bottles of Scotch sold is a Blended Scotch Whisky and they are generally far more affordable than Single Malt Scotch Whiskies.
