Inchgower is a single malt we don't often see bottles, but the tasting notes here definitely have us intrigued.
Producer Description: "Our third batch from the Inchgower distillery is a 14 Year Old, a release of just 225 bottles at 50.5% abv. Rarely seen as a single malt, except through the Flora and Fauna series where it’s bottled as a 14 Year Old, and through independent
About the Label (Larger Label Under the Tasting Note)
"Its name comes from Scots Gaelic for ‘island of the goats’. Did you know there is a Goat Island in the middle of Niagara Falls? It’s the inspiration for our Inchgower label. Standing between the Bridal Veil Falls and the Horseshoe Falls you can look across to Canada from Goat Island, which we’ve depicted with fields of icewine."
500ml mlProducer Tasting Note
Nose: Floral notes lead, with a hint of citrus fruit and orange zest.
Palate: An oaky warmth is followed by tropical fruits and caramel.
Finish: A smooth finish with lingering suggestions of salted caramel and more tropical fruit.
That Boutique-y Whisky Company (TBWC) is part of the Atom Group, which also owns the UK retailer Master of Malt and a number of other subsidiaries. They are a dynamic and innovative firm, who by example invented the Whisky Advent Calendar concept. Established in 2012, TBWC is famous for its playful and colourful labels, which often feature prominent whisky industry figures, tell a story, and or elude to an inside joke. The labels are typically laced with hidden elements and "Easter Eggs."
TBWC bottles whiskies from around the world, though the bulk of their offerings are of Scottish origin. Most of their offerings are small-batch releases, Blended Malts, and Blends. Their "Head of Whisky" is Canadian Sam Simmons.
We are big fans of not only their whimsical labels but also the consistently high standard of liquid they bottle.

Inchgower doesn't get enough love. It's one of Diageo's invisible distilleries, with most of its production destined for Bells Blended Whisky. Official bottlings are as nearly as scarce as hen's teeth. A tired cliche, I know, but quite apropos. Fortunately, we've seen a handful of really cool indie bottlings over the last couple years, such as this 1998 from First Editions. Not a bad price for a cask strength 23-year-old.
Only 120 bottles from Refill Hogshead HL18466.
Natural colour, non-chill filtered, and bottled at 55.4% abv.
