Crafted in Edinburgh by Holyrood Distillery, Embra Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a contemporary take on peated Scotch, balancing subtle smoke with refined complexity. This expression uses a blend of two distillers' yeasts, three brewers' yeasts, and two wine yeasts, lending it an unusually layered and expressive character. Made from Scottish barley and pure water, it’s an ideal gateway to peat—approachable yet deeply satisfying for seasoned whisky drinkers.
On the nose, Embra opens with fresh lemon zest, underpinned by earthy notes of horse chestnut and a cool trace of peppermint. Light wisps of hickory smoke hint at what’s to come, leading into a palate rich with dark chocolate mousse, biscuit sweetness, and grounded by the presence of Highland peat. The finish is clean and mellow, revealing stewed pear and a soft, lingering smoke.
Bottled at 43.6% ABV, Holyrood Embra is best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to open its aromatic depth. Whether you're new to peated whisky or looking for something with both smoke and finesse, this single malt delivers a distinctive and elegant profile rooted in modern Edinburgh’s craft spirit.
