Distillation and production
Production method
Finlaggan does not disclose the originating distillery: the distillates come from one or more distilleries on the Isle of Islay and are purchased, blended (when applicable) and bottled by the Vintage Malt Whisky Company as single malts and finished editions.
Distillation
Distillation is carried out at the undisclosed origin distilleries (Islay); Finlaggan handles purchase, any blending, finishing/maturation and bottling as an independent bottler.
Ageing
Maturation in oak casks with standard releases and some expressions finished in sherry, port, red wine casks and French oak; ageing specifications and lengths vary by expression and in many cases are not declared in detail.
Producer history Finlaggan
Finlaggan was created as the flagship brand of the Vintage Malt Whisky Company, a company founded in 1992 to operate as an independent bottler of single malts from the Highlands & Islands. The brand was redesigned and relaunched in the mid-2010s and today includes a core range of NAS expressions alongside editions finished in various cask types and cask strength releases.
Production philosophy
To convey the character of the Isle of Islay through accessible, consistent peaty single malts: Finlaggan aims to deliver pronounced peat-smoke and saline profiles, offering expressions at different strengths and with varied finishings to the global market.
Territory
Whisky origin: Isle of Islay, Scotland. Commercial/bottling headquarters: Vintage Malt Whisky Company based in Milngavie (Scotland).
