The Eight Grain
The Eight Grain
This 40-year-old Blended Grain Scotch Whisky celebrates all the glorious diversity found within the grain whisky category to create a Blended Grain with decadence, elegance, and flashes of bright citrus.
"Celebrating all that aged grain whiskies can bring this highly unusual release brings together the distillery character of eight of Scotland’s closed and active grain whisky distilleries. A rich decadence contrasts bright citrus notes characteristic of the component distilleries."
Ross
"A forty year old blend from eight closed and active grain distilleries, this dram opens with toffee apple, lemon sherbet and icing sugar, finishing with candy floss, golden syrup and red apple. Amongst this sweetness there is also a hint of garlic butter and parsley fresh from your lobster dinner."
Alex Mennie
The Finer Details
Celebrating all that an aged Blended Grain Scotch Whisky can bring, this highly unusual release brings together the distillery character of eight of Scotland’s closed and active grain whisky distilleries.

Nose
Rich, compelling and multi-faceted, the nose of this mature Scotch whisky bursts with aromas of baked sugar, caramelised banana, banoffee pie with a pleasing background hint of wood shavings.
Palate
The palate is rounded and balanced with the character of fleshy stone fruits shining through above the classically creamy, generous aged grain whisky character.
