Our Brands

Many whiskies have legends created and crafted around them and we thought that Blackadder should be no different – after all, we are selling Scotland’s legendary spirit!

This is our legend of Blackadder...

“Long, long ago, in days since hidden by the swirling mists of time, the trusted sword of Blackadder went fourth and vanquished the dark forces of evil and justly ruled over the lands of Northern Scotia.”

Peat Reek Embers are specially-selected casks from our already well-known Peat Reek portfolio. These are casks that we feel stand out from amongst a selection of which we are already very proud. This in no way means we think they are better than others in the Peat Reek selection. All have the heavily-peated quality that is a hallmark of Peat Reek, but some of the Embers range have been given cask finishes selected to help further complement the whisky. As with the burning embers of a fire, the finish lingers long after the last sip.

We are proud to work with St. Kilian Distillers in Germany, bottling selected single casks of their exceptional whisky.

Irish whiskey distillers have always fiercely and jealously guarded the independence of their spirit. They produce a different style of whiskey to that of their Scottish cousins. We want you to celebrate that difference, but we also want you to enjoy Irish whiskey as it was always traditionally enjoyed. So, just as with our fine Scotch single malt whiskies, we never alter the spirit of Ireland when we put it in the bottle. A Drop of the Irish is just that!

We are very proud to be working with The English Whisky Co. – England’s oldest whisky distillery. Founded by the Nelstrop family in 2006, The English Whisky Co. built the beautiful St George’s Distillery specifically to make the very finest whiskies. The site is perfectly suited to whisky production, with the county of Norfolk being one of the world’s finest barley growing regions, coupled with the Breckland aquifer which can be found 50ft beneath the distillery providing a plentiful supply of crystal clear water. to come.

Red Snake is the sister to our Black Snake whisky. As with its older brother, Red Snake only comes from top-class, first-fill ex-Bourbon casks. However, unlike its brother, each Red Snake comes from just one single cask. Part of the enjoyment of Red Snake is the special cask finishes that we offer from time to time.

In mythology a Chimera was a monstrous creature made up of multiple animals. Don’t worry though, we at Blackadder haven’t gone mad! Today’s Chimera is a single organism made of mixed species, the result of which is always breathtaking. As we are best known for our single cask bottlings we felt Chimera would be the perfect name for this exciting range of exclusive vatted malt whiskies, which is available as both 46% and also Raw Cask.

Blackadder Raw Cask Bas Armagnac from Château Garreau. Founded in 1919, the Château sits at the heart of the golden triangle of Armagnac – producing the First Grands Crus of Grand Bas Armagnac. The Château also has the only underground cellar in the Bas Armagnac region.Distillation uses a SIER continuous column still which dates from the year of the company’s foundation.

Also known as the Gayrosse estate, Château Garreau’s vineyard extends over 26 hectares, straddling the departments of Landes and Gers. Its location, at the heart of Bas Armagnac, near the magnificent medieval city (thirteenth century) of Labastide d'Armagnac, makes it one of the most beautiful jewels of Armagnac.

Shizuoka Distillery is situated in the mountains lying inland from the city of Shizuoka, South-West of Tokyo. Each cask is selected by Blackadder and bottled as RAW CASK, which means that each and every bottle contains its share of the CASK SEDIMENT, as well as NATURAL OILS AND FATS that might otherwise be left behind when filling a cask-strength whisky straight from cask.We hope you enjoy the fantastic Japanese whisky from our good friends at Shizuoka Distillery!
