Frequently Asked Questions
What does 97.6 proof mean?
In US measurement, proof is double the ABV percentage — 97.6 proof equals approximately 48.8% ABV. This is just above the typical 40–46% ABV of standard distillery bottlings, providing more intensity and texture than most standard expressions without reaching full cask strength.
Is an 8-year-old single cask single malt interesting?
Yes — single cask expressions at younger ages show the distillery’s raw spirit character before the oak fully integrates, allowing a direct comparison to older expressions and insight into how the distillery’s house style develops over time.
