Modern Malts Distilling Future: Pioneers of whisky innovation
The world of whisky is experiencing a renaissance with new distilleries breaking with traditional methods and bringing fresh perspectives to production. Here are some notable examples:
Glasgow Distillery
Glasgow Distillery, the first whisky distillery in Glasgow for over 100 years, uses its urban surroundings to create a modern Scottish single malt, combining traditional distillation methods with modern techniques and a strong focus on ingredient quality and cask maturation to produce complex and layered whiskies.
Isle of Raasay Distillery
This young distillery on the picturesque Isle of Raasay in Scotland is known for its innovative use of local resources and environmentally friendly approach. It experiments with different types of water, yeast and cask maturation to create unique flavour profiles. Its location also offers the advantage of incorporating unique geographical and climatic conditions into its whiskies.
Nc’Nean Distillery
Nc'Nean, an independent, organic distillery in Scotland, is committed to sustainability and innovation. It uses only organic Scottish barley and renewable energy and aims to be one of the most sustainable whisky distilleries in the world. Nc'Nean is also known for producing whisky in smaller, experimental batches, often exploring new flavours and maturation processes.
Lochlea Distillery
The relatively new Lochlea Distillery has also made a name for itself through its focus on quality and local production. It controls the entire production process from growing the barley to bottling, which is a rare pursuit of the farm-to-bottle philosophy in Scotland. Lochlea also experiments with different cask maturations to develop distinctive flavours.
