From our ‘peated’ single malt range, this island whisky undergoes double distillation using traditional Scottish methods, uses only the finest local malted barley and is uniquely peat-smoked at the distillery – a practice exclusive to a select few. Our patient, purposeful distillation yields a complex, layered, and balanced ‘clearach’ (new-make spirit).
Renowned whisky maturation expert Dr. Swan has lauded the original newmake from our copper pot stills as the best I have tasted in any distillery at this stage, super fruity.’ This peated distillate maintains the smooth and fruity character, now adorned with delicate, intricate peat-smoke notes. Peat smoking contributes the truest ‘terroir’ in whisky appreciation. Therefore, our Peat Project™ range allows you to explore how peats from Washington USA, Canada, and Scotland differ in their unique flavour profiles.
The nose has an abundance of tropical fruit, Sherry, and floral notes with light peat and seaside breeze, including dried apricot, potpourri, rose petals, fruitcake, vanilla, treacle, red liquorice, burnt heather, and cellared oak. This leads to maritime notes reminiscent of the beach at low tide.

Description
From our ‘peated’ single malt range, this island whisky undergoes double distillation using traditional Scottish methods, uses only the finest local malted barley and is uniquely peat-smoked at the distillery – a practice exclusive to a select few. Our patient, purposeful distillation yields a complex, layered, and balanced ‘clearach’ (new-make spirit).
This expression was distilled using local barley peat-smoked at our distillery to 54 ppm with local Washington State peat, from just across the Canadian-U.S. border. It was then matured in, and bottled directly from, a single carefully selected Spanish Oloroso cask. This single cask allows comparison of Washington peat across our range of wine casks including red, white, Port, and PX, etc.
The nose has an abundance of tropical fruit, Sherry, and floral notes with light peat and seaside breeze, including dried apricot, potpourri, rose petals, fruitcake, vanilla, treacle, red liquorice, burnt heather, and cellared oak. This leads to maritime notes reminiscent of the beach at low tide.
The palate is creamy with medium peat smoke, bonfire, sweet Sherry, candied orange, dried figs, fennel, perfume, sweet pea and rose water, developing to dark chocolate, oak spices, coffee, and dulse. The finish is dry with lingering peat smoke and a hint of salt befitting our island location.
