Product notes

At Mossburn we only produce handcrafted whiskies of the highest quality, selected from our own ageing stocks. This Blended Malt is an excellent example that illustrates the classic regional flavours of a well-balanced, complex Scotch Malt Whisky.

Production notes

These whiskies were aged in American Oak barrels prior to their initial blending and were then matured for a second period in our proprietary Mossburn Casks. These casks were first fill ex-Bourbon barrels with toasted virgin European heads which provide additional smoky spice and an increased depth. Bottled at 46% alc/vol without any colouring or chill filtration.

Tasting notes

No doubting the signature Island smoke and spice immediately apparent on the nose, but this is more a seductive clove and pot-pourri spice rather than medicinal coastal woodsmoke. The oak influence is more visible in the flavour with a touch of tannin and spice on the initial taste which mellows with heathery dried fruit and more pepper coming through later. The finish is long with a little dry fiery kick at the close.
