LBD North British 1996

• Distillery – North British
• Cask Type -Port Pipe
• 30 year old
• No of Bottles – 479

We’re still struggling to come to terms with the fact that 1996 was 30 years ago and not about 10, as it feels it should be. Chris has waited 30 years to watch Trainspotting, it might be another 30 before he gets round to it though.

Produced in the Edinburgh area in 1996, we could be talking about this whisky or Trainspotting so that’s the theme for this label > Choose Little Brown Dog, we amuse ourselves. We’ve said it before but we prefer our grains with a bit of age and this cask has that. Full
maturation in a Colheita port pipe brings something quite unique to this single grain though. Remarkable well balanced between spirit and wood with an extra layer of red fruit and one for the single grain doubters to try.
