Portrait: What makes the North British 15 year old Bourbon Barrel Matured Vintage Signatory special

While the single malts pose loudly on the whisky stage and outdo each other with sherry casks and peat smoke, the North British 15 year old prefers to take a back seat - charming, relaxed, and with a wink. A true gentleman, indeed..

This single grain whisky was produced at the North British Distillery in Edinburgh – a distillery that has been doing its work quietly since 1885. Single grain here doesn't mean "one grain," but rather: "I'm different, but I also come from Scotland and carry a Barrel."

This whisky, distilled in 2009, was aged for 15 years in classic Bourbon Barrels – making it arguably one of the best-aged grain products in Great Britain. It was bottled by Signatory Vintage, the independent bottler who loves to bring whiskies to light that otherwise remain in the shadows.

And that's precisely what makes this North British so exciting: no showmanship, no peat storms – simply solid distilling, matured for years in casks and then – bang – into the bottle.

A whisky that proves: You don't have to be a malt to have character. And anyone who gives it a chance will quickly realize – even the quieter types deserve their big stage.

Tasting Notes: This is how the North British 15 year old Bourbon Barrel Matured Vintage Signatory tastes like

  • Nose: Soft and inviting with distinct aromas of vanilla and sweet caramel - with a hint of fresh pastry - like warm butter cookies straight from the oven
  • Palate: Creamy and round - the Bourbon Barrel aging brings creamy sweetness - vanilla and toffee are in the foreground, accompanied by a fine doughiness reminiscent of light pastries
  • Finish: Medium-long, pleasantly sweet and soft - vanilla notes remain present, accompanied by a delicate biscuity and a hint of warm sweetness
