Caperdonich Distillery, whose name derives from the Gaelic for 'secret well,' stood on the banks of the River Spey in Rothes, Speyside. Founded in 1897 by James Grant as 'Glen Grant #2,' it operated intermittently before its permanent closure in 2002 and eventual demolition in 2010. This 'lost distillery' remained steadfast in traditional production methods while others expanded, crafting a Speyside single malt characterized by delicate fruity notes, honeyed sweetness, and a distinctive waxy texture. Though the physical structure no longer exists, its legacy endures through rare independent bottlings highly prized by collectors. The remaining stocks, primarily matured in ex-bourbon casks, offer a glimpse into a bygone era of whisky making, with each bottle representing an increasingly scarce piece of Scotch whisky history. The legend of Lord Ross and his daughter's lover adds an air of romantic mystery to this already enigmatic distillery's story.

Just had a pour of this pale gold whisky – looks really natural in the glass. On the nose, I get tangerines and a bit of apple skin, with something that reminds me of porridge, maybe? There's a hint of paraffin, but it's not harsh, more like a bold backdrop. Taking a sip, it's less complex on the palate but very satisfying. Feels mashy, almost like mashed potatoes, with bursts of crystallised oranges. The oakiness is superb, and it has this compact, bold character. Finish is long and keeps you thinking – extremely fresh, like that vibe you get from an Orval beer. Really enjoyable! 😊

Lovely cosy dram 🥃 Bit of honey, soft oak and a wee touch of spice. Feels warm, smooth-ish, with a gentle dry finish. Nice for a quiet evening.

Oh, this one's a bit tricky at first sip, like it's hiding summat. 🔥 The nose has that classic charred wood smell, maybe a bit of dark chocolate peeking through. Taste-wise, it starts off with a smoky kick, then mellows into some sweet, fruity notes – think plums or sultanas. The finish is long and warm, with a spicy tingle that lingers. Really nice! 😊 A bit of a journey, but thoroughly enjoyeable.

Aye, this whisky's got a real kick o' smoke, like standin' by a campfire. 🔥 Smooth as silk on the tongue, wi' a touch o' honey sweetness. 🍯 Goin' down easy, no harsh notes. Quite moorish, innit? 🥃 Sometimes the oakiness comes thru, remindin' me o' autumn leaves. 🍂 And a wee hint o' spice at the end – cinnamon maybe? 👌
