Description
Ladyburn is among the rarest names in Scotch, a Lowland malt distillery built into the Girvan grain complex on the Ayrshire coast in 1966 and dismantled by 1976, operational for just nine years. Distilled in 1973 and bottled in 2000, this twenty-seven year old single cask, number 4510, was released for Europe.
Never a standalone distillery, Ladyburn was four pot stills in a corner of the Girvan site, its malt made for Grant's blends and to free up Glenfiddich stock. Twenty-seven years in refill ex-Bourbon let the malt thicken into wax and vanilla, the oak never dominant.
Bottled at its natural cask strength of 50.4%. The ex-Bourbon gives vanillin for vanilla and oak lactones for coconut, with maltol for toffee over an oily, waxy depth. A rare single cask from a nine-year ghost distillery.
