Product name Vintage Malt Lord Elcho
Color Bronze gold.
Perfume Fresh and pleasant. Reminiscent of green apple, grape and pear. This is followed by warmer notes of freshly cut hay and fragrant eucalyptus aromas.
Taste Full and delicate with hints of crisp caramel. Notes of ginger syrup reveal a spicy character. It is pleasantly clean on the palate, but on adding water it develops its spicy side with notes of red fruits such as pomegranate. The finish is dry and persistent, with aromas of cracked Brazil nut.

Description

David, Lord Elcho, the eldest of the sons of the 5th Earl of Wemyss, was one of Prince Charles' greatest supporters during the Jacobite revolt of 1745 and for his significant role was crowned Colonel in the Prince's guard; he remained with the Prince until his defeat at the Battle of Culloden in 1746 and was then forced into exile in France. Lord Elcho Premium Blended Scotch Whisky represents the strength and spirit of its namesake: smooth, rich and aged to perfection it is a noble whisky with a noble heritage.

Wemyss Malts
From this winery
The Wemyss family have had a longstanding passion for malt whisky and their connections with the industry date back to the turn of the 19th century when John Haig (founder of Haig's) built his first distillery on Wemyss land.

Wemyss Castle - historic home of the Wemyss familyEven today barley from the Wemyss Estate is prized by many of the leading distillers, and Cameron Bridge distillery is located just a few miles from the castle itself.

With this passion came the gradual realisation that, even for the knowledgeable consumer, much of the malt whisky terminology can be confusing. Our range of hand crafted malts was conceived with the aim of making them more accessible and understandable.

We use the taste and aromas of the individual whiskies to identify each bottling, rather than the distillery, so the consumer can more easily understand the style being purchased.
