Description
North of Scotland began production in 1958, and was the first venture from George P. Christie, who later opened the Speyside distillery as well. North of Scotland originally distilled malt whisky as well, known as Strathmore, but its pot still were removed after just one year to focus on its grain production. Sadly the distillery was short-lived, shut down by Christie in 1980 in anticipation of the era of oversupply, also referred to as the "whisky loch." The site was sold to DCL in 1982 and is nowadays used as a bond and warehousing operation by Diageo. Primarily tasked with provision for blends, there are very few releases of North of Scotland grain. This official 50 year old was bottled in 2017 in partnership with Elixir Distillers, but the majority of bottlings are from independent labels.
Distilled in 1972 at North Scotland Distillery, this single grain whisky was matured for 47 years.
One of 387 bottles. This is bottle No. 306
LOT No. IWA: 65698007
Guide Price: €160 - €180
The Lowlands
The region has five currently producing whisky distilleries: Ailsa Bay,in Girvan owned by William Grant & Sons, Glenkinchie distillery, near Edinburgh; Auchentoshan, near Clydebank; and Bladnoch in Galloway and Annandale Distillery in Annan. Another distillery Daftmill in Fife has started distilling but have not yet brought a single malt to market. Three further new distilleries have opened in recent years: The Glasgow Distillery Company in Glasgow, Kingsbarns distillery and InchDairnie distillery both in Fife. Distilleries are also planned at Lindores Abbey at Ardgowan. At least six other lowland single malts are still available, but are no longer distilled: Rosebank, Kinclaith, St. Magdalene, Ladyburn, Inverleven, and Littlemill. Traditionally Lowland single malts are triple distilled (though this has not been true of all of them), often giving them a lighter taste.
