Wolfburn Morven Lightly Peated Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Highland single malt that balances delicate peat smoke with approachable character?

As a certified spirits specialist, I’m impressed by how Wolfburn Morven Lightly Peated Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky demonstrates the northernmost Scottish distillery’s mastery of gentle peat influence. This Premium expression offers newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts alike a sophisticated introduction to peated whisky without the medicinal intensity found in Islay malts. Compared to the unpeated Wolfburn Northland or the bolder Wolfburn Cask Strength 2023, Morven strikes an elegant middle ground.

• Distillery: Wolfburn – Scotland’s most northerly mainland distillery, revived in 2013
• Region: Highland – known for diverse flavor profiles and coastal maritime influence
• ABV: 40% – accessible strength that reveals complexity without overwhelming heat
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: Quarter casks with lightly peated barley (12.5 PPM)
• Tasting Notes: Nose reveals sweet vanilla and citrus with gentle wood smoke. Palate delivers honeyed malt, toasted oak, and subtle maritime salinity. Finish is warming with lingering peat and spice
• Best Served: Neat at room temperature in a Glencairn glass, or with a splash of water to open aromatics

Our spirits specialists at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store have found this expression particularly appealing for those transitioning from unpeated Highland malts to more robust styles. The quarter cask maturation accelerates flavor development, creating remarkable depth for a young whisky.

Ideal for: Whisky club tastings, introducing friends to peated styles, or expanding your collection beyond mainstream options. Pairs with: Rich char siu, smoky grilled satay, aged cheddar, or dark chocolate desserts. Recommended for: Fans of coastal Highland character who appreciate Old Pulteney’s maritime style, now available at RM 225 with delivery across Malaysia.
