History,
Mossburn Single Malt Scotch Glen Spey Distillery Vintage Casks No. 23 10 Yr is a unique spirit crafted as the twenty-third release as part of Mossburn's Vintage Casks range. Each numbered release will only ever yield a finite number of bottles. Mossburn Distillers & Blenders is a brand new Scotch whisky project owned by Marussia Beverages. The company is headquartered at Jedburgh in the Scottish Borders on the site of the former Jedforest Hotel. It is one of the first new distilleries to be built in the Borders for over 180 years. The first phase of development is construction of the Jedhart Distillery, a small distillery featuring three copper stills, five 5,000 square meter warehouse for pallets and casks and a small caf. The second phase is construction of the Mossburn Distillery and visitor centre, a large production facility with the capacity to produce 25 million litres of spirit per year. There will also be a larger caf and restaurant. Not content with these distilleries, Mossburn is also developing the Torabhaig Distillery on the Isle of Skye, the second distillery there after Highland Park. Obviously building a whisky distillery and waiting for whisky to come online the spirit has to be aged for at least 3 years before it can even be called whisky is a long term project. So, in the meantime, Mossburn have started the ball rolling by bottling a small collection of single malt whiskies and two blended malts, an Island and Speyside, with bespoke cask bills. The single malt bottlings are Ardmore
Tasting Notes,
Nose: It is earthy and slightly herbaceous with aromas of fresh cut grass and menthol on the nose
Palate: Features flavorful notes of toasted malt with a dash of vanilla, and caramelized sugar peels.
Finish: The finish leaves you with an oily mouthfeel of aniseed, and menthol on the back end.
