Description

One of the three malt whisky distilleries that comprised the lost distilling industry of Inverness in Scotland's Highland region. Primarily tasked with providing fillings for blends, only a handful of official single malts were released before it was shut down by the Distillers Company in 1983.

Nose
Highly expressive, animated and still possessing a heady booziness. Peach melba, over ripe pineapple juice and guava are enriched by milky coffee, crème patisserie and nougat. Polish follows – joined by a curious pepper, anise, mint and oregano infusion. Running throughout – dry dusty cellars, stale candle wax and cracked cashew nuts. The addition of water cuts through the overt rawness, emphasising homemade lemonade, ginger, sunflower oil and golden syrup.
Palate
A brassy (literally – metal polish) and brash arrival that's tart, immediately drying and punctuated by potent spirit. Candied lemons, soured pineapple and green apples are joined by dried leaves, wood varnish and penetrating pepperiness. The development calms somewhat, but is still piercingly tart and arid – citric power, chiselled minerality, powered mint leaves and bitter dark chocolate. Water once again applies the breaks – barley water and grapefruit juice but with a heightened sense of steeliness.
Finish
Medium to long with Andrew's Liver Salts, crumbled limestone, lemon balm and residue hot spirit.
