The Experiment: King of Trees
class

Fetching Price
On an ancient estate in the Scottish Highlands two oak trees, both centuries-old, were felled by a storm. These trees provided the wood for a single cask, used to create an experimental blended whisky – King of Trees.
This blend of Highland malts was initially matured in first-fill bourbon barrels and refill American white-oak casks, before a portion of the blend was finished in the specially crafted Scottish oak cask. This created a bold streak of orchard fruits throughout the palate, alongside a classic Highland character, with soft spices and ripe fruits.

The Classic: 29 Year Old Glaswegian
class
Fetching Price
Fetching Price
A classic whisky from a now-silent grain distillery, which once stood at the centre of Scotland’s waterways. It was matured for 29 years, most of which it spent in traditional dunnage warehouses – where the earthen-floors helped maintain a cooler and more humid maturation environment.
Aged exclusively in American white-oak casks, this light grain whisky has developed a wonderfully balanced, sweet character full of butterscotch, vanilla and exotic fruity flavours.
Tasting notesfrom the producer
- Nose
- Butterscotch and vanilla notes, wood spice, desiccated coconut and pineapple
- Palate
- Butterscotch, rich custard, apricot and buttered popcorn

About
Whyte & Mackay
Founded in Glasgow in 1844, Whyte & Mackay have long been associated with top-notch blended whiskies, thanks in part to their ‘double marriage blending’ process, and since the 1970s, to the skills of master blender Richard ‘The Nose’ Paterson.
