Strathearn
Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Located in Highland Perthshire, an area with a rich Whisky distilling heritage owing to its spectacular landscape and freshwater lochs, Strathearn Distillery is sited on the outskirts of Perth, the first capital of Scotland. From one of Scotland's smallest distilleries comes one of the country's mightiest Malts. Prioritising flavour over alcohol yield, Strathearn is one of, if not the only distillery to still use Marris Otter Malt, which produces a deliciously creamy, malty new-make spirit. Crafted to perfection, our spirit is matured in the finest casks, from which it takes on an immensely rich and refined flavour, from small acorns...
Nose
Anticipate a rich Malted barley depth with gentle oak on the nose.
Palate
The mouth-coating, syrupy palate brings honey and buttercream with baking spice and dried apricots.
Finish
The warming finish is long with home baking and buttery oak biscuits.
Independent bottler Douglas Laing & Co has entered the single malt market with the launch of its non-age statement Strathearn single malt.
Douglas Laing acquired Strathearn Distillery in Highland Perthshire in 2019 and the new whisky has been aged in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels and virgin and ex-sherry oak casks.
Cara Laing, managing director of Douglas Laing & Co, said: “Our Strathearn Distillery team make a barrel of spirit per shift or, simply speaking, a barrel a day. This may be a drop in the ocean compared to some distilleries, but for Strathearn, it’s a proudly hand-crafted drop that embodies the spirit of the distillery.
“Strathearn is the epitome of quality over quantity. It is a part of our family history, but rest assured this is only the beginning for Douglas Laing Distilling.”
The whisky is bottled at 50% ABV and non chill-filtered with no added colouring. It has an RRP of £85.
