Spencerfield Spirit Company is based in the magnificent surroundings of the Firth of Forth. It is a family run business, owned by Alex Nicol and his wife Jane. Nicol was previously a marketing director for Glenmorangie before he chose to start his own Whisky adventure and Spencerfield was born. The first product to come out of Spencerfield was the humorously named Sheep Dip, which has been followed up by Pig's Nose and variations of itself.
 
Sheep Dip is a blended malt brilliantly named after the potent liquid used to delouse sheep. The full-bodied flavour is achieved by weaving together sixteen different single malt Whiskies, aged between eight and twenty years, in specially selected first-fill oak casks. It has been described by Jim Murray as “young and sprightly”, a nod towards its unique taste and smooth qualities.

About the Flavor Spiral
What does Sheep Dip taste like?

The Flavor Spiral™ shows the most common flavors that you'll taste in Sheep Dip and gives you a chance to have a taste of it before actually tasting it.

We invented Flavor Spiral™ here at Flaviar to get all your senses involved in tasting drinks and, frankly, because we think that classic tasting notes are boring.

90% of all Scotch Whisky released in the market is a blend. That’s a hell of a lot.
Whisky distilling goes way back to 1494 when the first recorded batch was made by a posse of monks who acquired about 60 gallons of barley and decided to turn it into "aqua vitae". They created the first 1,500 bottles of Scotch in History.
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.
90% of all Scotch Whiskies sold are Blends.
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.
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.
