Tasting Notes

Nose: Soft vanilla cream, coconut and honeyed oak, with gentle notes of tropical fruit and polished wood.

The Carsebridge 48 Year Old, bottled by Living Souls, is an exceptionally mature Lowland single grain Scotch whisky from the long-closed Carsebridge distillery. Matured for nearly five decades in first-fill bourbon barrels, this rare release captures the elegance and quiet complexity that only time can create.

Once one of Scotland’s great grain distilleries, Carsebridge closed in 1983, leaving behind a legacy of beautifully ageing spirit prized by collectors and connoisseurs alike. Extended maturation in American oak has allowed the whisky to develop layers of vanilla cream, polished oak and delicate tropical fruits while retaining remarkable softness and balance. Bottled at a natural 40.2% ABV, this is a whisky defined by refinement rather than power — a contemplative dram showcasing the grace of long-aged grain.

A rare opportunity to experience a lost Lowland distillery at remarkable age, presented with understated elegance by Living Souls.

The Distillery

Carsebridge Distillery, founded by John Bald in 1798 on the outskirts of Alloa, initially produced both malt and grain whisky until the 1850s, when the installation of a Coffey continuous still spurred its transformation into a dedicated grain distillery. By 1886, two Coffey stills were operational, and a third arrived around 1966, propelling Carsebridge to become one of Scotland’s largest working distilleries by the mid-1960s. Despite its prominent standing in the Lowlandwhisky landscape, Carsebridge closed in 1983, and most of its buildings were demolished in 1992. Today, it endures solely in history as a lost Lowland grain distillery, captivating whisky enthusiasts and collectors who seek the remnants of its once-thriving legacy.
