How we craft our Casks of Scotland whiskies
Every malt in our range has been created by carefully selecting up to 20 casks of whisky from one distillery in a region. These casks are then combined, the strength reduced to 46% and bottled without chill-filtration or added colouring. On occasion we also release special limited editions at cask strength.
There will be natural differences between bottlings however they will always be of a similar flavour profile and style and of a consistently high quality, as you would expect from any whisky that bears the A. D. Rattray name.
