✨ Tekniske specifikationer

Representing a bold departure from traditional Scotch whisky conventions, this single malt spirit from Edinburgh's Holyrood Distillery highlights their pioneering work with alternative yeast strains. By utilizing Champagne yeast—historically sidelined in favor of high-yield distiller's yeast—the distillery coaxes out an remarkably vibrant, ester-rich profile defined by crisp green apple, pear, and delicate floral notes. This experimental approach pays homage to Edinburgh's rich brewing heritage, where diverse yeast cultures were once the lifeblood of the local industry. Matured in hand-selected casks, this expression showcases how yeast selection can fundamentally redefine the flavor architecture of Lowland single malt.

🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten

Holyrood Distillery blev grundlagt i 2019 af Rob og Kelly Carpenter i samarbejde med den tidligere Macallan-masterdistiller David Robertson. Etableringen markerede en historisk milepæl, da produktionen af single malt whisky dermed vendte tilbage til det centrale Edinburgh efter næsten et århundredes fravær. Destilleriet har til huse i en ombygget jernbanebygning fra 1830'erne, klos op ad Holyrood Park i det skotske Lowlands, og drives ud fra en progressiv filosofi, hvor smagen altid er i absolut centrum. Holyrood udfordrer de traditionelle rammer gennem dybdegående eksperimenter med historiske og særlige bygsorter som Golden Promise, alsidige gærtyper og nøje skræddersyede fadlagringer. Ud over at skabe nuancerede og komplekse single malt-whiskyer er det innovative mikrodestilleri også anerkendt for sine karakterfulde, håndværksmæssige gin, rom og botaniske spiritusser.
