Description

A farm distillery owned and run by the Cuthbert family. It is only operational during the farm's quiet periods in mid-summer and mid-winter, sometimes producing as few as 100 casks per year. When not distilling, Francis Cuthbert looks after the estate, growing the malting barley used to make this Lowland whisky. Harvested from the farm's Dam Park and Curling Pond fields on the 31st August 2004, the Chariot barley was among the last to be malted in Fife by Robert Kilgour & Co. before they closed. The twenty eight casks in this bottling are all first fill ex bourbon barrels distilled in 2006 and bottled in 2022 at natural cask strength.
