Description

This limited edition whisky commemorates the centenary of the 1921 Poppy Pledge. The single malt matured in a mix of second-fill Islay quarter casks and first-fill Oloroso Sherry Hogsheads, yielding a smoky yet fruity profile. Tasting notes include floral hints, vanilla, mild spice, roasted nuts, dried fruits, understated maritime peat smoke, a hint of iodine, brown sugar, and caramel. It is non-chill filtered and presented at 46% ABV.

One of 1921 bottles.

Wolfburn

Wolfburn is one of Scotland's most northerly distilleries and is situated on the north coast of Scotland overlooking the Pentland Firth. Here is where the master craftsmen fashion their whisky the same way it was always made; by hand, using only the finest ingredients and without haste.

Although it is a new distillery, it takes its name from an older distillery that once operated nearby in the 19th century. Wolfburn produces a range of lightly peated and unpeated whiskies. Wolfburn is non-chill filtered and entirely naturally coloured.
