The Grainman

Single cask, single grains

The Grainman is our single cask single grain brand and was launched in January 2016. The “single” in the name tells you it is also a product of a single distillery, but unlike single malt, single grain doesn’t need to be made from barley.  Instead, single grain whiskies are often made from wheat, corn, or a blend of the two.

Most single grain whiskies were made for blended whiskies like Johnnie Walker and Famous Grouse. However if you get a chance to try a single cask of single grain from an Independent bottler like The Grainman, it is a joy to behold.

Discover the wonderful world of Grain whisky and leave your preconceptions behind. Deliciously sweet and creamy, the flavours from an old grain can be outstanding, and very surprising.

The Grainman bottlings are all small batch, offering lovely sweet old grain whiskies from 10 years to 50 years old.

All are bottled at cask strength with no added colour or chill-filtration.

Think of thick treacle and toffee flavours of Invergordon, to the coconut and vanilla ice cream from Port Dundas, the voyage of single grain is tasty.
