Distilled at Glentauchers Distillery for 27 years in refill bourbon barrels, Lennox is a limited release of 300 bottles and is 1 of 12 Noble Malt Whiskies in The Thanes series.
This series of Shakespearean Scotch whiskies is the product of a collaboration between design studio Livingstone, whisky writer Dave Broom, Elixir Distillers and the legendary illustrator Sir Quentin Blake.
“Lennox is described as a young man and we wanted a distillate lead whisky where the good humour of this character could spring out of the glass. The beautiful florality of Glentauchers aligned with its gentle orchard fruit, suggests a character with a lighter touch, whilst the hint of American oak char in the back palate hints at his practical cynicism, which leads this character to support both Macbeth and ultimately Macduff.” - Oliver Chilton, Head Distiller at Elixir Distillers
Notes from whisky writer Dave Broom
In these dark times,
amidst the rage and fury,
a gentle touch is needed.
A look to the future
and the time when wounds will need to be healed.
Apply the balm, the floral absolute,
find the accords, accept the sting.
A garland to salve the hurt.
Lennox:
"Or so much as it needs
To dew the sovereign flower
and drown the weeds.
Make we our march towards Birnam". - Macbeth Act V SC.2 LN.29 William Shakespeare
