Description

Bought by Andrew Symington, owner of independent bottler Signatory in 2002, Edradour has lead a colourful life. At one point Mafia boss Frank Costello was its US Sales Representative when it produced its King's Ransom blend. The distillery now releases both an unpeated Edradour and the peated Ballechin. Once marketed as the smallest distillery in Scotland and set by an idyllic burn in the rolling hills, Edradour is known for its artisan production. This Ballechin Discovery Series #1 is a heavily peated Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky, matured solely in first-fill Burgundy wine casks and bottled at 46% ABV. It is unchillfiltered and part of a limited edition series.
