Description
Few Scotch distilleries are rarer than Ladyburn, a Lowland malt built into William Grant's Girvan grain complex in Ayrshire in 1966 and gone by 1976, after just nine years. This single cask, ex-Bourbon 3200, was filled in 1973 and bottled at twenty-seven years old in 2000 for Germany.
Ladyburn was never its own distillery, just two wash and two spirit stills at Girvan, its malt feeding Grant's blends and easing demand on Glenfiddich. The light spirit spent twenty-seven years in a quiet ex-Bourbon cask, gaining wax, vanilla and a little oak.
At its natural cask strength of 50.4%, undiluted. Vanillin from the ex-Bourbon reads as vanilla, oak lactones as coconut, maltol as toffee, over an oily depth. A rare single cask from a distillery that lasted just nine years.
