Single cask whisky is at the heart of A. D. Rattray who go to great lengths to source interesting and unusual casks from the six traditional whisky regions of Scotland. Each distillery represented is different and every cask is unique. A.D. Rattray curates 4 releases of their Cask Collection per year, choosing between 6 and 8 casks for each collection. Each cask is then evaluated over a period time and selected for inclusion only when judged to have reached the peak of perfection. Once a cask is selected, the spirit is rough filtered, removing any fragments of charred wood left behind by the cask, and then bottled at natural colour and cask strength, with no chill-filtration. There are therefore a limited number of bottles from each cask. This process retains the true essence of the distillery character and cask maturation for your enjoyment.
