The Legend
As Scottish legend has it, the illusive white heather brings good fortune to all who find it.
Next
With a high single malt content, and aged GlenAllachie as part of the blend, this limited release has been carefully crafted by Master Blender, Billy Walker, to create a full-bodied whisky with the perfect balance of sweet and gentle peat.
We never chill-filter or colour our spirit – a philosophy which simply allows the exceptional spirit within every bottle to speak for itself.

Taste
Rich notes of heather honey, butterscotch, orange peel and soft tannins, all in balance with a wonderful presence of peat and smoke.
Casks
The whiskies began their journey in a combination of 1st and 2nd fill American Oak and Sherry casks. Once blended, the spirit was filled for secondary maturation in specially selected Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso Puncheons, as well as Appalachian Virgin Oak casks. As the whiskies marry, they also interact with the wood, enriching the flavour experience.
The Whisky
The quality of the vintage whiskies we blend is equally as important as the wood. Each single malt contributes its own unique characteristics; GlenAllachie brings rich and fruity notes, the Islay malt contributes subtle hints of peat, and the Highland malt adds a honeyed sweetness. The older grain whiskies are the rich and bold foundations which deliver an extra layer of complexity.
Master Blender
White Heather is skilfully crafted by industry icon, Billy Walker, who boasts an almost 50-year tenure in whisky and blending. He meticulously selects the finest Scotch Whiskies and the rarest of casks to build an unparalleled flavour experience.
