Isle of Skye 30 yo in wooden box

Volume: 0.7 litres | Alcohol content: 40% | Chill filtration: Yes | Colouring: No

Special Features:

For this bottling, Isle of Skye matures for 30 years in oak casks. The Blended Scotch combines selected island and mainland whiskies, including Speyside components, with a high malt content. It is released in batches at 40% alcohol and presented in a premium wooden box.

Its style brings together soft vanilla and malt, raisins, delicate pastries and a light trace of smoke. Oak and sweet fruit complement the gentle smoke without taking on the character of a heavily peated single malt.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: On the nose, vanilla and light oak mingle with almond pastries, coconut and a floral note.
• Palate: The whisky feels silky and sweet on the palate. Buttery pastries meet fresh malt, raisins and creamy vanilla.
• Finish: The long finish is dry, with gentle spice notes and Demerara sugar lingering.

Distillery/Bottler:

Ian Macleod Distillers Ltd. is responsible for the Isle of Skye brand and blends and bottles its Blended Scotch whiskies. Founded in 1933, the company is a family-owned Scottish spirits business.

The history of Isle of Skye also began in 1933, when Ian Macleod developed the blend using whiskies from Skye and the Scottish mainland. The brand's approach combines peated island malts with softer malts from Speyside and the Highlands, along with grain whiskies. Behind the island name lies a blending tradition that brings together different Scottish regions of origin.
