OUR INK PHILOSOPHY

"In the maturation, one generally evokes the power of influence of the barrel on the whisky but all the art of the experts often consists in valuing the character of a distillate by a perfectly executed aging.

With INK# ranges, we have selected superb and unique distillates from distilleries that are confidential and appreciated by connoisseurs.

For our Royal Brackla, Inchgower, Auchroisk and Caol Ila bottlings, our team deliberately stopped on barrels with a light aromatic contribution to highlight the magnificent work of distillation and the aromatic richness created at this stage. With Bourbon casks or Hogshead refill, each distillate is allowed to talk, breathe and balance. We find the original style from these distilleries: magic is at the heart of the still.

The cask used for Bunnahabhain is a strong and rustic "Sherry Bomb" that completely rules the style of this bottling!

On the other hand, for Ledaig, we chose a Port Cask with a strong aromatic impact while preserving the style of the distillery. A beautiful opposition of style between the fruits and the delicacy of the Port cask, and the original "wood fire" and "barbecue" character of peat Ledaig.
