Description
This official Lindores Abbey single malt, a 5 year old Lowland malt from 2019, drawn from cask 190598 and bottled at 60.7%. 264 bottles in all. Lindores Abbey Distillery opened in 2017 beside the abbey ruins where Scotch whisky was first written of in 1494. It was built in 2017 by Drew and Helen McKenzie Smith, whose family has held the Lindores land since 1913.
Distilled on water from a borehole the monks first dug, building the layered Lindores style. It was matured in ex-Bourbon oak, lending vanilla, orchard fruit and butterscotch. A young distillery leans on lively casks, the wood shaping much of the flavour. The Casks of Lindores range shows the spirit in bourbon, sherry and STR red wine wood. The abbey ruins still stand beside the modern distillery buildings. The bottle shape is drawn from a 12th century pillar found in the abbey ruins. The 1494 Exchequer Rolls record a Lindores monk making aqua vitae for the king, the earliest written reference to Scotch.
Bottled at a cask strength 60.7%, it is intense. The ex-Bourbon lends vanilla, orchard fruit and butterscotch. It is rich and fruity, the young spirit shining through. It finishes rich, fruity and full. This is Lindores Abbey's layered young single malt.
