Winemaking notes
We have a long-held reverence for the whiskies
of the Clynelish and Caol Ila Distilleries.
Ever since ELEUTHERA, our first malt blend
released in 2002, we have known that these
two single malt whiskies can complement each
other exquisitely.
For the label artwork, so great is our esteem
for the whiskies in this blend that we looked to
Renaissance painting for inspiration.
We’ve chosen TOBIAS & THE ANGEL, a
beautiful painting produced at Andrea del
Verrocchio’s studio in Florence during the 15th
century. As was common at the time, however,
TOBIAS & THE ANGEL showcases the talents
of several artists. For example, the little dog
with its graceful and minutely-observed curls
of hair, and the gleaming fish carried by Tobias,
were both painted by a young Leonardo da Vinci.
Viticultural notes
Bottled at 47.6%.
Not chill-filtered.
Natural colour.
Tasting notes
Distant bonfires underlay ethereal
herbal and fruit characters, the result
of extended maturation.
Pairing notes
We believe this whisky will be
best appreciated sipped at bottling
strength. However, you may enjoy it
any way you like.
