Kingsbarns Single Cask #753 ex-peated hogshead

Kingsbarns Distillery

£112

A rare single cask release matured for 6 years in an ex-peated cask, allowing the whisky to develop a subtle layer of smoke while preserving Kingsbarns’ signature orchard-fruit character. Bottled at natural cask strength, this limited release delivers a fuller, more expressive style with depth, harmony and refinement. Natural colour and non-chill filtered. Tasting Notes Nose: Gentle smoke intertwined with sweet pear, soft vanilla and earthy tobacco leaf. Palate: Caramel shortbread, green apple, toasted oak and freshly baked banana bread, with a full texture that reflects its natural strength.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as THE KINGSBARNS COMPANY OF DISTILLERS LTD, number SC359078. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
The company describes its own premises: "From our reinvigorated farmstead distillery near St Andrews, our master distillers embrace the changing seasons to craft a continually evolving collection of exceptional malt whiskies and gins." Self-declared (§3.3), read from the company's site. Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
