Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is it smoky?
It has a subtle, gentle wisp of smoke—much less than an Islay malt, adding sophistication to the sweet fruit.

Why is it called “Complex”?
The flat-topped stills produce more flavour compounds, making it a blender’s favourite.

Should I add water?
A tiny drop is recommended to reveal heather and honey notes that may be hidden by the oak finish.
