The Lost Distillery Company Auchnagie Vintage Collection Batch #2 is a blended malt that closely recreates the single malts of the Auchnagie distillery around a century ago. Lost Distillery started in 2013 to recover the character of lost malts, and this Auchnagie vintage is between 18 and 25 years-old.
Auchnagie Distillery existed for almost 100 years, beginning as a remote farmhouse distillery and ending its days as, arguably, the jewel in the crown of a global whisky empire. It had at least seven different owners and was silent for large parts of its life. This was not unusual for small-scale 19th century distilleries, as their precarious existence was often at the mercy of water supplies, money shortages, changes to duty laws, and local demand for their products.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: Poached fruit, barley sugar sweets, caramelised pear and a hint of leather
Palate: Robust vanilla pod, clove and touches of aloe
Finish: Rather long, with cooked apple and custard Ccream biscuits
