CDL

CDL Whisky is a modern Speyside single malt, distilled and bottled in Scotland. Characterised by its smoothness and balanced flavour profile, it's aged in a combination of American oak ex-bourbon and Spanish oak sherry casks. Bottled at 43% ABV (hypothetical), it's non-chill filtered (hypothetical) to retain its full character. Perfect for both seasoned whisky drinkers and newcomers seeking a high-quality, approachable dram.

CDL Whisky was born from a simple vision: to create a modern Scottish whisky that respects tradition while embracing innovation. Our founders, drawing inspiration from the rich distilling heritage of Speyside, set out in 2015 to build a distillery focused on quality, transparency, and approachability. We believe whisky should be enjoyed, shared, and savoured without pretence. Every bottle of CDL Whisky represents our commitment to craftsmanship and our passion for creating delightful spirits.
