This limited-edition whisky was distilled, matured and bottled at the family-owned Kingsbarns Distillery in the Kingdom of Fife. Part of their much-loved single cask range, it celebrates the nuances and variations achieved by natural oak maturation.

Crafted with locally grown barley, this Lowland Scotch was filled into cask number 1712007 – an ex-Bourbon barrel. After five years, it was poured into just 249 bottles at a cask strength of 61%, non-chill filtered and natural colour.

The team at Kingsbarns always choose barrels that have a gentle influence. This is to ensure that the terroir and fruitiness of the spirit isn’t overwhelmed. So, on the nose there are scents of violets, sweet vanilla icing and freshly cut grass. We’re already geared up for a garden party before even tasting it. On the palate you’ll discover poached pears, dried apricots, vanilla pods, grapefruit, dry spices and a little fiery cayenne pepper from that punchy ABV. Sip this summery dram at the end of long sunny day or mix into an exquisite highball.

The Wemyss family have a long history with Scotch whisky, as John Haig built his first distillery on their land at the beginning of the 19th Century. Their new venture started out as a derelict Georgian farmstead, which has been lovingly converted into the glamorous Kingsbarns Distillery. This new Lowland whisky producer draws its water from an aquifer 100 metres below the distillery, the Laureate barley is grown in Fife and is completely unpeated (the environmentally conscious choice of many new distilleries), and the wood policy was directed by the late, great Dr Jim Swan, a celebrated whisky maker who was described as “the Einstein of whisky” and who was instrumental in setting up a raft of other great distilleries, including Nc’nean, Filey Bay, Cotswolds, Kavalan, Penderyn, Kilchoman, Victoria Caledonian and Milk & Honey. Kingsbarns Distillery is located deep in golf club country on Scotland’s tempestuous east coast. So, it will come as no surprise that their whisky makes a fine choice after a windy eighteen holes.
