Whilst tasting the individual casks in order to select a well-matched pair for our normal bottlings, we occasionally encounter a cask which seems particularly fine and perfectly as it is that will become Bad Na h-Achalaise Single Cask.

 

So we bottle this scotch whisky on its own, with only a little Badachro water added to a bottling strength of 50% abv. These are low volume bottlings from between 250 – 350 bottles.

Our single Cask are selected due to the reduction in the peat peppering and the increase in the silky-smooth peat taste, with the dram being all together rounder than our typical releases. A lucky find in the warehouse indeed!
