Mossburn Island Blended Malt

The Mossburn Signature Casks range of whiskies showcase the typical characters of Scotland’s regional malts. They are classic expressions of their provenance, with further influence from our signature casks which were designed specifically to enhance the characteristics we look for in each of these exemplary malts.

These whiskies were first aged in American Oak barrels prior to their initial blending, and were then matured for a second period in our specially coopered custom-made Mossburn Casks. These casks were built to our specifications, or Cask Bill, with each of the malts having its very own: Cask Bill #1 for the Island and Cask Bill #2 for the Speyside.

These Blended Malt Scotch Whiskies have been bottled without any colouring or chill filtration.

A blend of Single Malt Scotch Whiskies distilled on the islands of Scotland. To enhance the characteristics we love in coastal malts, the Mossburn Casks used were first fill ex-Bourbon barrels with toasted virgin European heads, to provide additional smoky spice.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Coastal smokiness develops throughout, with a touch of floral malt bringing sweetness to the nose.

Palate: Drying spices (think nutmeg and cinnamon), blended with caramelised sultanas and shortbread. Soft smoke continues.

Finish: A lasting finish of sponge cake, marmalade and toasted rye.
