Frequently asked questions

Have questions? We’re here to help

Why do we use 100% Farm-Grown Barley?

We believe great whisky begins in the soil. By growing our own barley, we control every stage of the journey — from barley to bottle.

The benefits of using Golden Promise Barley?

It’s a full-bodied spirit with a malty, buttery character.
It has an oily mouthfeel that enhances complexity in both new make and matured spirit.
It has a historic pedigree, used by distilleries since the 1960s.
Loved by smaller, quality-focused distillers willing to trade volume for flavour.

The benefits of using Laureate Barley?

Laureate barley is a popular and successful spring malting variety due to its high and consistent yields as well as it's strong disease resistance.
Laureate imparts a lighter, cleaner fruitiness to our whisky which creates balance with the heavier structure of Golden Promise.

Benefits of using first-fill casks?

Because fresh wood brings bold character.
Maximum flavour extraction.
Richer colour, deeper aromas.
Faster flavour integration, which brings maturity even in younger whiskies.

How does a sherry cask influence the flavour?

Sherry Casks impart notes of dried fruits, dark chocolate and warming spice.
They apply a depth and richness that round out the malt.
Sherry imparts aromas of raisin, fig and toasted nut.
Sherry wood gives Aberargie whisky elegance and complexity.

How does a bourbon cask influence the flavour?

Bourbon casks impart notes of vanilla, honey and coconut.
They produce a lighter, sweeter influence on the whisky that balances malt character.
Bourbon imparts toasted oak and spice aromas that deepen over time.
They are the classic choice for a reason - clean, rich and endlessly complementary.
