Description

The origins of White Horse Distillers dates back to 1880 and the foundation of whisky merchants, James Logan Mackie & Co. After just fours years in business, the company bought a stake in Islay’s Lagavulin distillery, which trained the art of distilling and blending to James’ nephew, Peter Mackie.

He joined the company in 1980, launching the now famous White Horse blend the following year. When Peter Mackie died in 1924, the company was reorganised as White Horse Distillers, and became part of DCL in 1927.

The distilling empire granted it the licenses for Lagavulin and Glen Elgin distilleries, but eventually limited its blend to export markets. Its modern iteration, Diageo, eventually dissolved the company in 2010.

It's estimated this miniature bottle dates back to the 1960s. 

Please note as this is a vintage miniature, conditions of bottle/label and liquid level can vary.

 

 

More Info

Nose: Refined,  a hint of peat and an abundance of caramel and red berries but all modestly waiting their turn. 

Palate: A real salty coastal undercurrent but upon the earthy light peat that has faded through the decades. The echo remains with a twist of black pepper, mixed herbs and just a hint of eucalyptus. 

Finish: The finish is one of caramel and then a pleasant earthiness that just reminds you Islay and the core distilleries in the blend.
