Producer history Cladach

Cladach was introduced in 2018 as part of the Diageo Special Releases line. The release was conceived as a tribute to malts located on the Scottish coast: the blend brings together malts from Clynelish, Inchgower, Oban, Talisker, Caol Ila and Lagavulin. It was created for Diageo's annual special releases series and distributed in limited quantities.

Production philosophy

To showcase the 'coastal' character of the malts composing the blend, creating an aromatic profile featuring maritime notes, light smokiness and the fruity richness typical of Diageo's malt heritage.

Territory

Scotland (blend of malts from several Diageo-owned coastal distilleries)
