The Deacon Blended Scotch Whisky is a masterful blend of both smoky Speyside and peaty Islay malt whiskies, resulting in a complex, rich, and smoky dram. The single malts from Islay contribute a distinctive peaty smoke flavor, while the single malts from the mainland add a campfire-like smokiness. The nose offers a delightful combination of charred orange, sweet malted cookies, and wood smoke, followed by juicy orange and delicate spice notes on the palate. The finish is both sweet and smoky, long and smooth.
This whisky pays tribute to master craftspeople, represented by the name "Deacon," which means an adept and proficient master tradesman in Scots. The Deacon is a nod to the skilled distillers behind the Scotch, as well as a homage to traditional Copper Pot Stills and the historical profession of the "Deacon" – a skilled handyman depicted as a mysterious, masked figure.
The Deacon Whisky, a collaboration between Sovereign Brands and Pernod Ricard, is bottled at 40.0% ABV (80 Proof) and features a striking copper-colored bottle reflecting its high-quality content. With this whisky, the brands aimed to break traditional Scotch conventions and shake up the whisky market.
