Situated on Scotland’s rugged north coast, the Wolfburn distillery was first established in 1821, rapidly becoming the largest distillery in Caithness. Today our master craftsmen fashion their whisky the same way it was always made by hand, using only the finest ingredients, and without haste. Distilled, matured and bottled on-site at Wolfburn Distillery.
This lightly peated whisky is made from malted barley infused with smoke during the drying process. It’s a reflection of history – the original 19th Century distillery was largely fired by peat. Gentle distillation is followed by maturation in our purpose-built warehouses. The result is a beautifully smooth and rounded whisky.
