Peated and unpeated spirit crafted with 100% Scottish barley are matured, separately, in fresh and refill Chinkapin Oak casks and married together to create this signature lightly peated style of whisky. Chinkapin oak is a virgin oak species from North America, not vastly used in the whisky industry, in fact it’s an industry first - as far as we are aware! We like to think of it as our Raasay superpower. These rare casks are produced to our own spec - heavy char and high toast, which results in a delicious barbecue flavour to our whisky.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eNOSE: Wood smoke and rich dark fruits\u003cbr\u003ePALATE: BBQ glaze, honey, bright lime, cinnamon and smoked ham\u003cbr\u003eFINISH: Sandalwood and lingering fragrant smoke\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Producer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCo-founders Bill Dobbie and Alasdair Day first met in 2013 and formed R\u0026amp;B Distillers with the common goal of building Scotland’s leading artisanal distiller.
