Tasting Notes

TWB Tasting Notes: Nose: Enticing aromas of dried fruits—raisins, dates, and figs—mingled with notes of honeyed sweetness, vanilla, and a hint of toasted almonds. Palate: Rich and velvety, featuring layers of dark chocolate, toffee, and sweet sherry, complemented by subtle spices and a touch of oak. Finish: Long and warming, leaving a lingering impression of sweet sherry richness, gentle spice, and a delicate nuttiness.

The Distillery

Strathmill Distillery, originally established by John Keith in 1825, operated until 1829 before being converted into a corn mill. In 1891, the site was reconverted into a distillery, nestled between the River Isla and the Great North of Scotland Railway on the outskirts of Keith. Equipped with four stills and retaining its traditional pagoda roofs, Strathmill produces malt whisky primarily for blending, contributing to some of Scotland’s most famous blends. As a result, official releases are rare, making Strathmill a hidden treasure in Scotland's Speyside whisky region.
