A 200-litre cask of Port of Leith newmake, filled into first-fill Bourbon in December 2024.

Port of Leith is Scotland’s first vertical distillery, rising 40 metres above Edinburgh’s historic Leith, this striking architectural landmark uses a gravity-fed production system that reduces energy consumption while maximising efficiency. Their innovative newmake is crafted using the Belgian Ale yeast BE-256, the distillery’s spirit boasts vibrant notes of cereal, toffee, and orange peel, offering extraordinary complexity even before maturation.

The first spirit rolled off the still in mid- 2024.

This offer includes three years storage and insurance at Braeside bond - a brand new cask warehouse in the heart of the Lowlands of Scotland.

Clients will be contacted upon purchase to setup their storage account and confirm all details of their purchase.

- The 2002 Cos d’Estournel is quite deep in colour with only faint bricking on the rim. The nose evokes an era when I feel that the winemaking team back then pushed the concentration to the maximum. So we have black plum, a touch of prune mixed with marmalade, scents redolent of a richer growing season, though it lacks a bit of definition and charm. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannins, quite decadent and toasty, Asian spices and liquorice, almost New World in style. Dry tannins on the minty finish. Tasted at the château.
