REGION: Scotland

Begun in 2002 by Elixir Distillers, Single Malts of Scotland independently bottles exceptional single cask and small batch single malt Scotches in an age when these gems are becoming increasingly difficult to find.

From Billy Walker and the team behind GlenAllachie, White Heather is a blended Scotch range featuring malt and grain whiskies sourced from all over Scotland to create an impressive lineup of high-malt content, age-statement blends that can confidently inhabit glasses often reserved for single malts.

Wolfburn Distillery, reopened in 2013 in Thurso, Scotland, is the northernmost distillery on the Scottish mainland. Located in Caithness—home to the largest expanse of peat bog in Europe—Wolfburn produces single malts using water sourced from the distillery’s onsite stream, the Wolf Burn.
