SELECT GRAINS – Rarely bottled single grain whiskies

Grain whisky is usually made from wheat or maize and blended with malt whisky from barley. It is usually sweeter, gentler and less complex than malt whisky. However, when artfully matured and allowed to age

gracefully, it can produce outstanding Scotch whisky in its own right. We at Murray McDavid believe grain whisky deserves greater recognition, hence we bring to you a super standalone single grain Scotch whisky.

Based in Edinburgh, the North British Distillery is one of the largest producers of grain spirit in Scotland. Distilling mainly corn, the distillery creates a fresh, sweet spirit which is typically enjoyed in the guise of a blended whisky. Today, we share this sprightly grain whisky in its pure form, after maturing it in an unusual combination of bourbon and fresh Tawny Port casks.

Like single malt, single grain whisky does not have to be old to be enjoyed, especially when matured in interesting wood. Our Whisky Team finished this grain spirit for 20 months in Caves de Murça casks from our Port-making partners in the Douro Valley – showcasing the Art of Maturation.
