The aptly named “Provenance” range combines Small Batch and often Single Cask bottlings, from an impressive portfolio of Scotland’s Distilleries from exceptional regions such as the Lowlands, Highlands Speyside and Islay. Provenance whiskies are without colouring or chill-filtration and bottled at high alcohol strength.

The brand

The brand

Founded in 1823, Mortlach is allegedly built on the site of a former illicit distillery. It was one of the rare distilleries allowed to produce alcohol during the second world war, right up until 1944. Using partial triple distillation and a traditional “worm tube” condensation system – also used by Talisker and Edradour – Mortlach produces a very delicate distillate. As is the case with many of the distilleries owned by the Diageo group, very few official bottlings of the malt exist outside of the Flora & Fauna and Rare Malts ranges released in the 1990s.

Merchant

Established in Glasgow in 1948 by Fred Douglas Laing, the Douglas Lang company has, in recent years, made numerous changes to its structure. Fred Laing’s movement to the head of the company has contributed towards the business’s sound reputation. Known throughout the industry for the quality and variety of its cask selection (Douglas Laing still has casks from the most prestigious distilleries: Glenfarclas, Talisker, Ardbeg, etc.), the company has expanded its already rich range that includes historic selections such as Double Barrel, Premier Barrel and Director’s Cut, with two new collections guaranteed to please connoisseurs: Single Minded and Old Particular.

The line

Provenace est une gamme de single malts et de single grains embouteillées 46% sans coloration ni filtration.Les fûts sont sélectionnés avec soin parmi les meilleurs producteurs et à travers les différentes régions d’Ecosse, facilement identifiables par un code couleur.
