Description
A lovingly made and highly affordable blended malt from the Thompson brothers in Dornoch, created with the whisky enthusiast in mind. SRV5 aka 'Station Road Vat 5' is married in the European oak vat illustrated (by Yu Kurahashi of Bar Tre, Hiroshima) on the label. This acts as a solera as it's never emptied to less than a third full when whisky is drawn off for bottling. Expect good body, fruitiness, waxiness, and a backbone of balanced peat in this 8 year old whisky bottled at a healthy 48.5%. As you'd expect, it's non-chill filtered and natural colour.
