Wolfburn Northland Single Malt Scotch Whisky [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Highland single malt that captures the wild beauty of Scotland’s northernmost mainland distillery?

Wolfburn Northland represents the renaissance of one of Scotland’s most remote distilleries, bringing together traditional craftsmanship with modern precision. This non-age-statement expression showcases the distillery’s commitment to natural production methods – non-chill filtered and naturally colored from carefully selected ex-bourbon casks. While exploring Highland expressions, consider comparing this to the Deanston Virgin Oak Highland Single Malt or the refined Benromach 10 Years for different Highland characteristics.

• Distillery: Wolfburn – Scotland’s northernmost mainland distillery, revived in 2013
• Region: Highland – capturing the rugged coastal influence of Caithness
• ABV: 40% – perfectly balanced for approachable sipping
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: Ex-bourbon American oak casks delivering vanilla sweetness
• Tasting Notes: Gentle woodsmoke opens to cinder toffee and Danish pastries on the nose. Sweet honey and lemonade flavors develop into white pepper spice, finishing with buttery toffee apple and lingering barley sugar
• Best Served: Neat in a tulip glass or with a splash of Highland spring water

Our team at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store has found this expression particularly approachable for newcomers to peated whiskies, offering just enough smoke to intrigue without overwhelming the palate. The quarter cask maturation accelerates flavor development, creating remarkable complexity for such a young whisky.

Ideal for: Whisky enthusiasts discovering Highland character and collectors supporting revived distilleries. Pairs with: Rich Malaysian dishes like beef rendang or dark chocolate desserts that complement the toffee sweetness. Recommended for: Those seeking authentic Scottish craftsmanship, alongside aged expressions like Tomintoul 16 Years Speyside Single Malt for comparison tasting.
