Label 5. It's a name that most Scots don't know anything about but if you come from Livingston, you'll have seen the massive Distillery there. It's kind of a big deal and is a real success story, for Scotch Whisky Exports. Their blended Whisky is already a 'Top Ten', Scotch Whisky, Global best seller. Incredible but true. Grain Scotch Whisky is ALREADY a thing and anyone who likes Bell's, Johnnie Walker or Famous Grouse is already having this, as a large part of a bottle of Blended Scotch Whisky. There also already are a few Grain-only Scotch Whisky Brands but it's never been that fashionable. However, as it's quicker (and cheaper) to make, and as demand for Scotch Whisky is SOARING, expect to see more, like this. #ScotchWhiskyTruths

NEW ~ The English Gently Smoked Double Cask 🥃 "Our Small Batch range of whiskies is not only a testament to the great work the distillers do, but it's also great fun to create and normally involves plenty of tasting along the way. The release is no exception. After trying to marry lots of different casks together and ending up with lots of lovely whisky – it is incredibly satisfying when you find a marriage that just works better than others. This release is the result of a perfect union between single malts matured in Bourbon casks & Oloroso casks. The process of taking cask samples and marrying them together in the glass is not fast, and when you finally get a winner, it is prudent to leave it in the glass for some time to see how it will develop. This whisky just got better and better. The end result is a single malt whisky, limited to just 2,100 bottles, that is a joy to drink."

This limited-edition release boasts a heritage unlike no other, distilled in 1940, matured in a single sherry-seasoned cask, and bottled in 2021.
