Tasting Notes

Nose Deep and elegant with notes of dried apricot, sultana, and polished oak, layered with hints of walnut loaf, vanilla custard, and pipe tobacco. Palate Rich and mellow with flavours of sticky toffee pudding, burnt sugar, and chocolate orange, followed by soft undertones of leather, nutmeg, and aged wood. Finish Long and stately with lingering notes of sherry-soaked fruit, dark spice, and gentle oak warmth.

The Distillery

Founded in 1806 by John Moubry, Cambus Distillery was established in Cambus near Alloa within Scotland’s renowned Lowlands whisky region to produce both malt and grain whisky. Moubry was part of a group of distillers who were strategically incentivized by the Stein and Haig family to temporarily close their operations, enabling Stein and Haig to maintain their monopoly in exporting Scottish spirits to the London gin market. Although Cambus Distillery ceased operations in 1993, its legacy endures as its whisky remains available through independent bottlers like Hunter Laing Sovereign, whose Cambus grain whiskies are highly sought after by enthusiasts and collectors alike. Today, the former distillery site is repurposed as a Diageo cask filling works, ensuring that Cambus’s rich heritage continues to influence the world of Scottish whisky.
