Buy a bottle of The Tweeddale The Evolution to be in with a chance of winning this wonderful prize.

The Tweeddale The Evolution

The Evolution is the oldest expression from The Tweeddale to date. Inspired by Richard Day’s cellar book, The Evolution is a blend of classic Speyside single malts and a Lowland single grain. All the components of The Evolution have been aged for at least 28 years to create a complex expression that embodies the vision and craftsmanship of the venerable Borders blender.

Nose: Juicy black fruits, with cherries and plums, and just a touch of icing sugar.

Palate: Big and full with Christmas cake, blackcurrant and pear notes, with a sweet fruity quality reminiscent of mulled wine.

Finish: A definite American oak influence with a hint of creamy milk chocolate.

NORTH BRITISH SINGLE GRAIN WHISKY

North British Distillery was established on farmland to the west of Edinburgh in 1885 by Andrew Usher, John M. Crabbie and William Sanderson. Since then the city has expanded ever outwards and now the distillery resides in the Gorgie area of Edinburgh. North British opened in 1887 to guarantee supplies of grain whisky for its owner’s cordials and scotch whisky blending businesses. It is equipped with four Coffey stills to produce grain spirit at 94.5% alcohol and multi-million litres of spirit annually. Whilst most of its whisky matures in racked warehouses in the central Lowlands, a small number of casks spend at least eight years at the distillery in dunnage Warehouse No.1. Official releases are very few but excellent independent ones are available from Hart Brothers and Hunter Laing.

This week’s episode of the show is the very first to review the new whisky from the Kaikyo distillery – Hatosaki, along with some Japanese whisky from the Scotch Malt Whisky Society, and Dekanta.
