Glenkinchie 12 Year Old Malt Whisky, 70 cl Whisky 5000281021942

Gelnkinchie's 12yo is quite a subtle whisky so perhaps one to offer to the newly initiated. Light fruit and citrus flavours make this a more accessible whisky.

Description

John & George Rate decided to add distillation to their farming skills back in 1837 and to some early success. However, that proved to be short lived with the distillery closing in 1853 until it could be re-opened by a consortium (if such a word existed then) of businesses in 1880. Not even the 2nd World War could close its doors after that! If you would like to visit, it's a very short journey (if not quite a stone's throw) from Edinburgh so convenient if you are visiting the city.

Rob Roy Cocktail Recipe

If there was ever a cocktail to make you feel the glitz and glamour of the history and chic society of New York, it's ordering a Rob Roy. The Rob Roy is a riff on a Manhattan, with their only difference being the base liquor. A Rob Roy is made using blended Scotch while a Manhattan is made with Rye. As such, the cocktail is malty and smooth, with a bit of spice on the finishing end.
