Bonningtons Inaugral Release Single Malt (70 cl)
ABV: 52.3% | Location: Edinburgh
The Bonington is the first single malt distillery in Leith, Edinburgh, in nearly 100 years. Construction of the distillery began in 2017, and the logo's citadel draws inspiration from old fortification ruins discovered during the distillery's foundation construction. It was commissioned in December 2019 and started its production in March the following year.
This is the very first single malt release from this Lowland distillery. This single cask was aged in a Ruby port cask, resulting in sweet, fruity malt with delicate spice and a long finish.
