Bottling Notes

Raven is a New England Highlands whiskey that was triple distilled and made from a blend of 1/5 English two row barley that is peated at Bairds Inverness, and ‘Provenance’ barley grown in Moree. The French oak is a favourite of Head Distiller Stephen Dobson, the same as he used for his multi-award winning ‘Belle Epoque’. It’s ‘Francois Freres’ cooper French oak, Ex-chardonnay, 2-year-old at purchase.

The name of the bottle (Raven) and the words “Quoth the Raven. Nevermore” that appear on the front label are a tribute to Edgar Allen Poe’s poem of the same name. Which is said to mean: Something that happens nevermore, will never happen again.
