Whisky Online Cy by F&S Kiosk Company Ltd (Crossroad Cava)
One of only six dedicated grain distilleries in Scotland, the North British distillery was founded in 1885 by Andrew Usher, William Sanderson, James Watson and John Crabbie. It has a noble history, and the four founders built the distillery in a bid to challenge the monopoly the Distillers Company Ltd. had over the supply of grain. Production began in 1887 from a single Coffey still, though within three years the capacity had doubled to three million gallons a year. For a period, North British was the largest grain distillery in Scotland. Ironically, a merger between DCL and IDV in 1997 resulted in North British being jointly run by the company which it has first set up to oppose. Awkward… Whisky from North British appears in a few famous blends such as Johnnie Walker Black Label, J&B Rare, The Famous Grouse and Cutty Sark. In 2018, the first distillery bottling of North British single grain was released in collaboration with Douglas Laing.

The North British distillery is the third largest of Scotland’s seven grain distilleries.

Although maize is the key grain used for distillation, the mash bill contains up to 20% malted barley. This 25-year-old single-grain Scotch joins the Cinema Series from That Boutique-y Whisky Company, bottled up at cask strength.

North British 35yo TBWC
That Boutique-y Whisky Company is well known for its excellent independent bottlings, and its much adored label artwork designed by Emily Chappell, which is celebrated here as one of Boutique-y’s Label Editions! This limited edition 700ml bottle contains a spectacular single grain whisky from the North British distillery that enjoyed a nice long 35-year stay in a refill hogshead. The label features a character seen on previous North British Boutique-y bottlings. He usually looks a bit sinister with his eye patch and white cat, but the lovely lilac background has softened that evil air, so he now looks rather friendly and approachable after all.
A release of 329 bottles.
That Boutique-y Whisky Company bottles limited edition whiskies from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blends, all adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels. The brand won Spirits Bottler of the Year at the 2023 Spirits Business Awards, and Blender of the Year went to Sam Simmons, captain of the Boutique-y clan who oversees every one of these releases.
