Two new travel exclusives

We’re exceptionally proud to launch two new Travel Retail exclusives for 2018. Speyburn 10 Years Old Non-Chill Filtered and Hopkins Reserve. Each release boasts two very different flavor profiles including our signature zesty sweetness, to a new smoky and peaty style.

Crafted in the stunning natural environment of Speyside, both exclusives have been made using fresh spring water from the Granty Burn – our dedicated water source.

10 YEARS OLD NON-CHILL FILTERED

Speyburn 10 Years Old has been bottled exclusively for those looking to pick up something special while travelling.  Pale gold with amber highlights, this exclusive whisky has a subtle aroma of lemon. The taste has touches of fresh fruit, with hints of toffee and butterscotch, creating a complex yet well-balanced dram with a long, smooth and sweet finish. 

Matured for ten years in hand selected American oak ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks. This Single Malt was born of Speyside’s stunning natural elements, breathing in the rich environment of the outstanding region.

The limited edition bottle has a higher strength of 46% ABV compared with the core range 10 Years Old which is bottled at 40%. The taste profile contains more pronounced hints of oily citrus, with a fresh green apple character as well as accentuated floral and vanilla notes. This is a more complex dram, boasting waxy fruitiness and leather complexity compared to the domestic expression. The higher strength malt is non-chill filtered with a RRP of €45.00/$55.00.

Hopkins Reserve

The exclusive Hopkins Reserve was created as a tribute to John Hopkins, the founder of Speyburn Distillery. It pays respect to his innovation, resourcefulness and ability to work with the stunning natural environment of Speyside with a flavour like no other Speyburn expression.

This smoky, silky, golden amber dram is a toast to his legacy, exuding delicate hints of green apples, toffee, lemons and floral notes with a smoky, citrus taste and a long, honey finish.

The unique Single Malt Scotch Whisky is matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks which previously held a peaty whisky to give it its light, subtle smokiness – a first for Speyburn. Bottled at 46% ABV, this non-chill filtered whisky has an RRP of €35.00/$45.00

Both expressions are presented in our recently launched refreshed packaging.  Presented in premium gift cartons, each featuring the iconic Speyburn Distillery, reflecting the heritage and stunning natural landscape of the distillery’s home in the heart of Speyside.
