North British
North British Distillery was established on farmland to the west of Edinburgh in 1885 by Andrew Usher, John M. Crabbie and William Sanderson. Since then the city has expanded ever outwards and now the distillery resides in the Gorgie area of Edinburgh and well within the city boundary. North British Distillery was built to guarantee supplies of grain whisky for their cordials and scotch whisky blending businesses. Nowadays North British Distillery matures some casks at the distillery in the remaining dunnage warehouse for release as well aged North British single grain whisky.
Nose: So old yet so fresh – round, full of sweet autumn fruits + light oak, coffee, cedar & tobacco.
Palate: Carries softly ripening fruit flavours + mocha + cough drop spices and candy floss.
Finish: All too fast! – but detect those soft warming spices which are still very apparent.

North British
North British Distillery, founded in 1885 by Andrew Usher, John M. Crabbie, and William Sanderson, is a historic Lowland whisky distillery located in the Gorgie area of Edinburgh, Scotland. Established to ensure a steady supply of grain whisky for cordials and Scotch blends, the distillery features four Coffey stills producing grain spirit at 94.5% ABV with multi-million litres annually. Most whisky matures in central Lowland racked warehouses, while select casks age for at least eight years in Dunnage Warehouse No.1. Although official releases are limited, exceptional single malts are available through independent bottlers like Hart Brothers and Hunter Laing. North British Distillery remains a cornerstone of Scotland’s esteemed whisky industry, celebrated for its quality and tradition.
