This bottle was produced at Ailsa Bay Distillery, and has previously been marketed as Dalrymple.
Since William Grant & Sons does not permit independent bottlings to be released under these brand names, we have named this release Paddy’s Milestone as a geographical reference.
Although it also has to be labelled as a blend, we can assure you that it is in fact a tea-spooned single malt. We wish you a wonderful time exploring this rare Lowland whisky.
Tasting notes:
Nose: Fruity is the keyword here; Apricots’, peaches, ripe Mago’s and vanilla a combined with a wee scent of fresh cut grass, green apples an eucalyptus. This is lowland whisky in its purest form!
Taste: The before mentioned savors are once again eminent; Apricots’, peaches fresh cut grass, green apples and some nutmeg. A creamy mouthfeel and butterscotch candy.
Finish: A mildly and smooth finish that brings new savors of pear drops to the foreground and some fresh lemony zest.
Balance and Complexity: Well balanced in both nosing and tasting. No off notes and it does have that grassy lowland style. The complexity is in the eucalyptus and nutmeg savors, very tasty!
An honest dram this is. This a bargain it tastes exactly as a suburb lowlander should be. This all the way the lowlands are known for; a fresh and exciting dram well worth the purchase. A true BFYB (Bang For Your Buck) whisky.
Ailsa Bay Distillery
Ailsa Bay Distillery, located in Girvan on the south-west coast of Scotland, is part of the Lowlands region. Founded in 2007 by William Grant & Sons, the distillery was built to meet the growing demand for single malt whisky and to increase the company's production capacity. Taking its name from the nearby granite island, Ailsa Craig, in the Firth of Clyde.
The distillery combines traditional and modern distillation techniques. It has eight copper pot stills and uses "micro-maturation" processes, in which the spirit first matures in smaller casks before being transferred to traditional oak casks. This process accelerates maturation and gives a complex flavour profile. In addition, Ailsa Bay is known for its precise control of phenol and sweetness levels, uniquely listed as PPM and SPPM on the bottles, giving aficionados insight into the flavour profile of each whisky.
