Product description
After the successful Newmakes, Holyrood Distillery Embra is the second single malt whisky from the Edinburgh distillery, which was founded in 2019. The distillery is experimenting with malt varieties, fermentation times and special casks inspired by the Scottish city's brewing heritage. This is also reflected in the glass bottles, reminiscent of beer bottles, in which the single malt is bottled. Embra is distilled from 56 per cent peated malt and matured three times in a combination of first fill bourbon barrels, Islay quarter casks and new American oak barrels. It is neither chill-filtered nor coloured.

ent: On the nose, it offers a fresh and vibrant bouquet of orchard fruits, honey, and a hint of malt, complemented by subtle floral notes and a touch of citrus zest. The palate is smooth and well-balanced, with flavors of ripe apples, creamy vanilla, and a gentle spiciness, all harmonized by a light, biscuity undertone. The finish is clean and refreshing, leaving a pleasant aftertaste of fruit and a hint of sweet malt.
Overall, Holyrood Distillery Embra is a beautifully crafted whisky that embodies the spirit of Edinburgh's rich whisky heritage with a modern twist. It's an excellent choice for both seasoned whisky enthusiasts and those new to the world of single malts, offering a flavorful and approachable experience.
