The Lost Distillery Files: Lossit Distillery

Scott Watson and Brian Woods left Diageo and took up a noble cause: finding long lost orphaned Whiskies and giving them a home. The Lost Distillery Company aims to re-create contemporary artisinal blends without compromising authenticity. The project was launched by the Whisky entrepreneurs in 2013.

When given a second chance at life, these Whiskies go through a very thorough and methodical three step process that abides by 10 key components, to ensure that the quality and authenticity of the original spirit remains un-compromised. These guys definitely do their research. They even have their own archiving team led by a professor from the University of Glasgow, Michael Moss. They strive to recreate the Whisky just as they would have been years ago.

So hop in their Whisky time machine and take a trip to The Lossit Distillery. ‘The only manufacture is distilling, which is carried on to a considerable extent in this island. There are three distilleries in the parish, – Lossit, Tallant, and Bowmore, producing above 60,000 gallons among them. The Whisky of this island being very much famed for its fine quality, commands the highest price in the market.’ The Statistical Account of Scotland 1834-1847; Killarow & Kilmeny.

Founded by Malcolm McNeill —a prominent farmer-distiller in 1817— near Port Askaig, Lossit started off as the biggest producer of Whisky on Islay until they closed in 1867. They used, pure oak and ex-Sherry casks. The Sherry casks infused a sweet, zesty fruit flavor into the aging spirit. The Lost distillery’s Lossit blended malt is heavily peated and infused with floral notes from the bere barley.

Blended Whiskies are the result of years of craftsmanship and dedication. A master blender does not simply wake up one day with a profound ability to create a cohesive and enjoyable liquid. From nosing the liquid to working out quantities of each different grain and malt to go into the blend, a master blender can take years, if not decades, to train.
Scotland is home to more than 20 million casks of maturing Whisky. That’s four for every person living there. Nuts!
First-class Whiskies are taxed not only by the state but also by the angels. This refers to the 4% of Whisky that evaporates from the barrels every year, a phenomenon known as the angel’s share.
Is Scotch always Scottish? What do you think? Yes. The answer is yes.
Single malt stands for around 10% of the Scotch market. This is a malt containing only one grain, legally required to be barley in Scotland, and made at a single distillery.

A blended Scotch is a combination of different malts from different distilleries. It is typically made from grain Whisky but does include malt Whisky to give it a more complex body.
Can Scotch go bad? Technically, an unopened bottle of Scotch can last forever. Air is the only true evil to Whisky; once the liquid is oxidized it is no longer immortal. After opening, as long as you store your Whisky in a cool, dry place, it will last another 5 years.
