Dornoch Distillery, founded by brothers Phil and Simon Thompson in 2016, is known for creating whiskies using a mix of traditional and modern methods. They embrace and harness natural seasonal variations to create flavor-packed spirits. This particular small batch blended Scotch whisky, Lowrie's Reserve, has been crafted at their Station Road Bond in Dornoch by Jack Lowrie and the Thompson Bros. Lowrie's Reserve is an exquisite fusion of various whisky types, resulting in a unique and complex blend. The foundation of this blend includes three hogsheads of heavily sherried blended Scotch, enhanced by two barrels of 11-year-old Speyside single malts and a portion of well-aged Strathclyde whisky distilled in 1994. Bottled in 2023, this malt-forward blend boasts an ABV of 45.7% and is presented in a 700ml bottle. Aromas of pear, fennel seed, buttered popcorn, and honeycomb fill the nose, followed by flavors of nougat, canned peaches, and clove-studded orange on the palate.
