A limited-edition and the first peated release from the Holyrood distillery in Edinburgh, founded in 2019. Named after a colloquial expression for Edinburgh, Embra is matured in a combination of first-fill bourbon barrels, ex-Islay quarter casks, and new American oak. The label design is inspired by images of St Leonard, the patron saint of barrel makers and also the distillery's location. Non-chillfiltered, naturally coloured and bottled at 43.6%. (Bottle size 70cl)
Nose: Lemon zest, horse chestnut pith, hints of peppermint and light hickory smoke.
Palate: Wafer biscuits, dark chocolate mousse and notes of earthy highland peat smoke.
Finish: Well-rounded and clean with light notes of stewed pears.
