A 200-litre first fill Bourbon barrel filled with newmake spirit from Edinburgh`s Bonnington distillery in October 2023. Included in the price is three years free storage and insurance at Braeside Bond in Fife.

The Bonnington Distillery, located in Leith, Edinburgh, marks the revival of single malt whisky production in the area after nearly a century. Commissioned in December 2019 and commencing production in March 2020, it serves as the modern home for the historic Crabbie whisky brand. The distillery`s construction unearthed significant archaeological finds, including remnants of an 18th-century distillery and the 17th-century Bonnington House, adding a rich historical context to its establishment.

Equipped with a 2.5-tonne mash tun and six 10,000-litre fermentation vessels, Bonnington Distillery ferments wort for at least 48 hours. Its two bespoke squat-neck stills, crafted by Speyside Copper Works, are designed to produce a spirit with a heavier, more Highland character, diverging from traditional Lowland styles. The distillery sources water from an ancient aquifer 147 meters beneath the site and utilizes both peated and unpeated malt, allowing for a diverse range of whisky expressions. Under the guidance of distillery manager Jamie Lockhart and master blender Jill Boyd, the team is developing a variety of releases, including the flagship single malt and limited editions.
