Isle of Sky’s secret weapon.

The Gaelic Whisky Company (Pràban na Linne in Gaelic) was established in 1976 by Sir Iain Noble on the Isle of Skye. It first opened to help create employment in the South of the Island and to provide authentic Whisky for Gaelic speaking islands of Scotland. They offer three different Scotch Whiskies: The Mac Na Mara Blended Whisky, Poit Dhubh Blended Malt Scotch (pron. Potch goo), and Té Bheag Connoisseurs Blended Whisky

Poit Dhubh 30YO Malt Whisky is their rarest expression. This extremely limited release is a Blended Malt Scotch that is said to contain a lot of Talisker, since it’s the only distillery on the Isle of Skye. The other single malts remain a mystery, but apparently it combines Speyside and Highland Scotch Whiskies, too. It’s aged in Sherry casks, bottled at 46%, without chill-filtration. It’s important to know, that they offer an 8, 12 and 21 version of the Poit Dhubh, too, as a more standard offering, but the 30YO is really, really hard-to-find. Scout their website… it’s not there. It’s a mystery. But we have it. And so can you.

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.
Is Scotch always Scottish? What do you think? Yes. The answer is yes.
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.
Scotch Whisky is seldom aged in new barrels. Bourbon and Tennessee Whiskey casks are usually used for maturation. In addition to that, Whisky is often matured or finished in various wine casks such as Sherry or Port.
Scotland is home to more than 20 million casks of maturing Whisky. That’s four for every person living there. Nuts!
Beer and malt Whisky seem to have quite a bit in common. Both drinks begin with malted barley, which deliver the enzymes and sugars needed for fermentation when steeped in hot water. The two go their separate ways at the wash stage, where they're fermented or aged to become the adult beverages you know and love.
