Our commitment to sustainable Whisky

Making whisky is not just about good liquid. Sustainability is not just a buzz word

Making whisky today is not just about good liquid, we have a chance to break convention and innovate for a better future. Sustainability is not just a buzz word. Questions we asked about whisky were ....Why ship heavy bottomed glass bottles weighing over a kilo around the world? Why glue cork onto plastic just so you can get an extra sensation opening the bottle? Can we use recycled glass? How can we encourage reuse?

Expert testimonials
"Their new-make is remarkable. It’s one of the few whiskies where you can really taste the new-make DNA in the whisky. Springbank is the perfect comparison"
— Joshua Hatton (One Nation Under Whisky)
"The smoke is ember-like; aromatic and earthy. It’s a Seamus Heaney poem in liquid form. All have clarity and sweetness not muddied confusion. These are extraordinarily assured whiskies."
— Dave Broom
"...a dram of poise and balance. The combination of peated spirit, re-charred oak and Pedro Ximenez sits very well together. New oak and dark fruits sherry tempered with fragrant smoke."
— Neil Murphy
