Ailsa Bay Whisky

Ailsa Bay distillery is a Lowland whisky distillery located in South Ayrshire, Scotland. The distillery is owned by William Grant & Sons. Scientifically distilled at 022 parts peat and 019 parts sweet, then micro matured to a precise balance of oaky sweetness and smoky notes, this award winning new age single malt whisky pushes the boundaries of flavour.

The only Whisky from Scotland to undergo a process called ‘micro maturation’. The distillery’s new make spirit is first filled into Hudson baby bourbon casks that are between 25-100 litres in size, for six to nine months. The relatively small traditional American oak barrels can contain up to 200 litres of spirit, enabling intense rapid maturation. The liquid is then transferred into virgin, first-fill and refill American oak casks for several years. The process is the first of its kind within the Scotch whisky industry.
