SUTHERLAND 5 years BLENDED MALT Thompson Bros

Vatted in June 2025, this 914-bottle edition was intended for a prompt release. However, a delay in schedule turned into a stroke of luck: the liquid enjoyed an unintended, restorative 8-month rest in the vat, allowing the components to marry perfectly into a singular, wax-forward expression. Though labeled as 5 years old, this batch has actually been aged for a minimum of 6 years. It is a meticulous assembly of Sutherland's finest: 73.72% Clynelish (for that irreplaceable texture), 26.28% Dornoch Distillery spirit, and the obligatory “teaspoon” from the county's other legendary distillery. Bottled at 48.5% ABV, it is presented with its natural color and is non-chill filtered.
