Product Description

Sheep Dip Blended Malt Scotch Whisky is a remarkable, multi-award-winning whisky that brings together the finest single malts from across Scotland. Crafted from up to 16 single malts, the blend showcases the exceptional diversity and quality of Scottish whisky. These malts are primarily drawn from the rich, smooth whiskies of the Highlands and Speyside, subtly enhanced with a touch of smoky Islay malt. This unique combination creates a whisky of great depth and finesse.

The whisky is matured in oak barrels, allowing the individual characteristics of the malts to marry perfectly over time. The result is a beautifully balanced, refined whisky that offers a rich golden copper colour. On the nose, Sheep Dip reveals delicate, floral aromas supported by complex fruit notes, including melon, pear, and orange, with a subtle hint of almonds. On the palate, it is elegant and smooth, giving way to the rich malty flavours that characterise the Highlands and Speyside whiskies, with just a whisper of Islay smoke in the finish.

Named after the historical practice of Scottish farmers calling their homemade whisky "Sheep Dip" as a way to avoid detection by the excise men, this whisky carries a sense of tradition and character. With its enticing complexity and pleasing finish, Sheep Dip is a whisky to be savoured, whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or with a splash of water.
