Description:
The Remnant Whisky company was formed in January 2020 by Peter Bignell (Belgrove Distillery), his son Dane, and their associates. Together, they bought nearly 300 full barrels of Nant whisky from investors stung by the failed buy-back scheme under the previous owner of Nant, and put together a rescue deal to purchase the barrels, setting out to blend and bottle whisky that almost never saw the light of day.

Here’s another addition to Remnant’s ‘The Black Spot T’ series series was laid down to rest in 90% bourbon and 10% in Apera and bottled at 47.1 ABV. The back label cheekily comments:
“When these casks were delivered by the (redacted) from (redacted) to our bond store, they all bore the mark of the Black Spot hiding the (redacted) logo. Now if we had been pirates, we would have been worried. However, unlike Billy Bones, we were more amused than frightened. That’s not to say we don’t still keep an eye out for strangers with wooden legs and parrots”
