Scotch Tips – Caerlaverock Castle Single Malt Scotch

Welcome to this weeks edition of Scotch Tips

Show Notes:

Caerlaverock Castle between Annan and Dumfries South West Scotland

Surrounded by a double moat and hundreds of acres of flat marshy willow woods (known in Scotland as a "moss"), Caerlaverock was built to control the South-West entrance to Scotland which in early times was the waterway across the Solway Firth.

Building began in about 1277, and by 1300 it was besieged by Edward I during his war against the Scottish king John (Balliol), a war still remembered for the brave resistance put up by the Scots under Sir William Wallace. Its triangular plan is unique in Scotland.

The scotch comes in a miniature collectable bottle.  Unknown who distilled it in Scotland.  It is la labled as a single malt.

Color: Light Yellow
Nose: Fruity
Palate: Fruity and spicy
Finish: Slightly sharp and long

If you get the opportunity give it a try.  And if you know the distiller, please let me know.
