ABOUT SINGLE MALTS OF SCOTLAND

The Single Malts of Scotland is a range of superb vintage Single Malt Scotch Whiskies individually selected from our stocks of ageing casks from the six main producing regions of Scotland.

Only casks that are judged to have attained the required quality and character are bottled under The Single Malts of Scotland label.

To ensure each whisky maintains its original flavour and cask character, we do not chill-filter or add colour.

As all our casks of whisky age, they develop their own unique characters. For every bottling in the Single Malts of Scotland Marriage series, we carefully select from these casks and bring a handful together to create a more complex and rewarding dram.

Non Chill Filtered, No Colour Added
