Becoming Scotland's northernmost mainland whisky producing distillery when it released its first single malt in March 2016, Wolfburn is built just 350m away from the ruins of the 19th century distillery from which it takes its name. With long fermentation, slow manual distillation and maturation taking place at least partly in quarter casks that previously held peated whisky from Islay, this is a release we've eagerly anticipated!
Orchard fruits, apple pie, a fresh maltiness, almonds, magnolia and a suggestion of smoke
Honey Nut Clusters breakfast cereal, sweet spices, chocolate croissant, more honey towards the end, and a subtle earthy peatiness.
Long and fresh, with even more rich honey notes
A deliciously complex single malt from one of Scotland’s newer distilleries - they are hitting it out of the park!

Shockingly good! I’m a convert. Gentle, very complex for a young scotch, imminently drinkable.
It was OK. Not my favourite Scotch.
It's okay, I like how much smoke it has for an Highland whisky,
Once upon a time I probably would have really enjoyed this but I'm generally not a fan of peated these days. So coming from a neutral place. It's ok. A tad harsh but perfectly drinkable and I dare say in coming years it will be lovely.
I managed to get a sample of a friend wow I was pleasantly surprised. So on my next trip up north I will be calling into the Distillery Shop.
