Wolfburn is the most northerly whisky distillery on the Scottish mainland, and our master craftsmen fashion their whisky the same way it has always been made: by hand, using only the finest ingredients, and without haste.
The first ever small batch whisky released by Wolfburn has been matured in half-size, first fill, ex-bourbon barrels. Filled with lightly peated spirit, these small casks have created an extraordinarily well balanced and rounded whisky with a rich depth of flavour and lasting finish.
Nose:
On the nose, figs and apricots mix with soft tones of peat smoke. There’s a hint of vanilla and oak present too.
Palate:
On the palate the depth of flavour is tremendous. Honey-laced porridge meets stewed apples and sultanas. The peat brings with it a touch of heat, while soft oak spices – cinnamon and cloves and ginger – are also present, all overlaid by a wonderful sherry sweetness.
Finish:
The finish does not disappoint; dried fruit and caramel flavours remain to the end and are neatly overlaid with hints of lingering peat smoke.
