Pig's Nose Blended Scotch Whisky is a smooth and soft whisky with a high malt content, as its name suggests, inspired by the expression "as soft as a pig's nose." This whisky was created by renowned whisky maker Richard Paterson and was first introduced in 1977. It is a blend of 40% malt whisky from the Speyside, Islay, and Lowlands regions of Scotland and 60% grain whisky from Invergordon, which has been aged for an average of five years in first-fill bourbon casks.
The whisky has a bright, light amber color with golden reflections and a youthful, fruity aroma with notes of fresh yellow fruit, such as peaches, along with malted barley and cornflakes. On the palate, it is smooth and sweet, with a creamy texture and a slightly salty, buttery finish. It has a medium persistence and leaves the palate clean.
The distillation of Pig's Nose begins with the grain from Invergordon, located in the Highlands region of Scotland. It is then blended with malt whisky from the Speyside, Islay, and Lowlands regions. The aging process takes place in first-fill bourbon barrels and ranges from 5 to 8 years. It is produced near the city of Edinburgh by The Spencerfield Spirit Company, a distillery that prides itself on its farm-like atmosphere, surrounded by fields of grain and country animals.
