Sans Named after an afflication sufferred by distillery workers engaged in the back-breaking work of turning the malting barley with a shiel (a kind of large wooden spade). Thankfully machines do this now, but this whisky has been named in honour of their passion. Produced by Malt Master David Stewart at William Grant & Sons, the whisky is a blended malt made up of 27 casks from Kininvie, Glenfiddich and Balvenie distilleries. (Kininvie has been in production for over a decade but without a bottling of any kind coming onto the market). The slick presentation features a triplet of monkeys, representing the three distilleries. Re-tasted in early 2024, the whisky delivers a medium sweet, pleasantly fruity, mainstream blend that oils-up nicely with ice but flattens out with minimal dilution. 40% Alc./Vol.
