Tune In To Our New Education Series
Introducing the first episode of our 8-part Education Series, ‘Marrying In Wood‘. Isabella Wemyss considers this aspect of our blending process pivotal, setting us apart from our competitors.
Marrying whisky in wood enables a profound interaction with the oak, enriching its character. This meticulous process imbues the final product with enhanced depth and complexity, highlighting oak-derived flavours and aromas.
As one of the select few Independent Bottlers who also own and produce Single Malt at Kingsbarns, we benefit from numerous synergies in skillsets. Isabella’s proficiency in cask selection, blending techniques, flavour profiling, and quality assessment is seamlessly applied across both our distillery and bottling operations.

A Quarter Passed
Discover A Quarter Passed, an expression that honours patience and the passing of time in whisky making. This blend has been meticulously crafted and married in wood for six years, a rarity in the world of whisky maturation. Bottled at a generous cask strength of 53.6% ABV, this 25-year-old blended malt is a luxuriously sweet vanilla-rich dram, with hints of soft coconut, toffee, and lingering spice.
