The Story

About Mackinlay's Shackleton Rare Old Blended Malt Scotch Whisky

Analysis of the original Shackleton Whisky determined that the whisky was made exclusively from malted barley, which had been lightly peated with peat sourced from the Orkney Islands (the home to Highland Park Distillery).

After tasting a small sample of the century-old whisky, Patterson set about to create a malt whisky that replicated the aroma and flavor profile of the original Shackleton Whisky. This Shackleton blend is comprised of a rare Glen Mhor cask, and some heavily peated Dalmore in addition to Glenfarclas, Mannochmore, Tamnavulin, Ben Nevis, Aultmore, Fettercairn, Pulteney and Jura whiskies. You can expect notes of smoke, rich sweetness

About Scotch

Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)

Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.

Tasting Notes

Bonfire on the nose with a subtle sweetness. The palate is rich with dark syrupy notes and candied pecans followed by malty notes and a dose of peat smoke. The finish is warming and peppery with oak.
