Gerston Vintage (2013) Batch 1, 46% @lostdistillery

Before we dove into our journey of discovery, our Whisky Lady shared the tale of two distilleries… enthusiastically outlining their background, differences and styles.

Gerston One (1796-1882)– A small farm to house scale Swanson family owned distillery that produced small quantity but high quality spirit that appealed to customers from London to Brazil and – most interesting for us in Bombay – in…

Lost Distillery - Gerston Classic 43% @lostdistillery

“What was once lost… has now been found!” Or so it would seem.. whisky wise that is! All part of the initiative to re-construct or in their terms “re-interpret” whiskies from lost distilleries closed years ago.

After checking out the Towiemore, we moved on to Gerston – which opened and closed then open and closed again (1796-1882 & 1886-1914). We sampled the Classic version…

Review – The Lost Distillery Company, Gerston Blended Malt Scotch Whisky, (No Age Stated), 46%

“Hey, guys!” I called to the kids from the living room window. “C’mere, quick!” Already well acquainted with the enthusiastic tone of my voice, the room thumped from the sound of all four running toward discovery.

Behind our house is a large outstretch of wetlands, and with that, it isn’t uncommon for us to be treated to wildlife displays as we are sometimes visited by the various inhabitants of…

46% alc./vol. The Lost Distillery Company, Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, Écosse Telle mon évaluation du Auchnagie qui contenait une mouche écossaise, voici un autre embouteillage de la Lost Distillery Company, le No.3 – Gerston. Il s’ouvre actuellement dans le monde plus de distilleries qu’il n’est possible de compter. Cela n’a pas toujours été ainsi, pour plus de raisons que je ne pourrais en nommer…
