Our '2024 First Edition' is bold, innovative and light golden in colour.  On the palate you will discover creamy caramel, with spicy, nutty notes finishing with fresh vanilla, old fashioned toffee and apricot.  It is likely to be a classic and we fully expect it to be recognised as one of the finest whiskies available. There are 2277 bottles available.

The '2024 First Edition' bottle's journey - We re-casked first fill ex-bourbon ASB casks 5,6,7,8,9 and 10 and finished them in first fill ex bourbon quarter casks. After sampling the whisky in the ASBs at 3 years, both the flavour and colour profiles were there but we decided to finish the whisky in quarter casks in order to further elevate both the colour, the flavour and accelerate the maturation. 

These casks were all filled in April, May and June 2020 and the grain used to make this whisky was predominantly Golden Promise with Cask 10 a combination of Laureate, Maris Otter and Golden Promise. The new make spirit was originally casked at 72% ABV. When finishing in the quarter casks we tempered the spirit down to 63.5% ABV for optimal maturation in the cask.
