Description

After establishing one of the World's leading whisky bars in Dornoch, Phil and Simon Thompson - better known as the Thompson Brothers - decided to take it a step further and start making their own whisky and gin on the site at the Dornoch Castle Hotel. Born from successful crowdfunding and a worldwide love of whisky, Dornoch's first whisky distillery was formed. While waiting for the whisky to mature, Thompson Bros ethically sourced whisky from two local producers who operate within a 39.8-mile radius of their home at the Dornoch Distillery, blending them to create this North Highland Blended Malt.

Nose
Heaps of fresh peach, floral notes of lychee, a touch of chalky flint, and honeyed sourdough are backed by flaky sultana pastries, a touch of banana, and oily, waxy malt.
Palate
More of that sweet peach and stone fruit character, with candied pineapple and milk bottle sweeties in tow. Silky layers of vanilla cream cushion a sprinkle of savoury spice.
Finish
Vanilla shortbread, candle wax, a touch of tangy citrus, and pepper.
