MacNair's Lum Reek

Today’s Lum Reek is the creation of our Master Blender Billy Walker, raising his hat to the top hatted Victorian. It’s a peated malt, marrying Islay & Speyside whiskies with rich GlenAllachie, to extend the flavour profile. Lum Reek is matured in GlenAllachie’s warehouses, bottled at 46% (and above) and unchilfiltered, allowing its natural colour to shine like those golden autumns Harvey MacNair enjoyed decked out in his waders. ‘Lang may yer lum reek’, literally meaning ‘long may your chimney smoke’, is a traditional Scots way to wish someone a long and healthy life.

First fill Bourbon, Oloroso, Virgin Oak and Red Wine casks to produce this rich golden spirit. Bottled at 46% ABV, non chill filtered and natural colour,

Full bodied peat reek, vanilla, barley sugar and tannins, followed by bog myrtle and sweet spices. 92 Points, IWSC 2019 "A lovely, lightly peated whisky, with the soft smoke mingling with spicy stewed apples and pears. A touch of vanilla lifts it, as does a sprinkling of pepper on the finish.”
