"Initially released in mid-2016, Northland was the distillery’s first release. The Whisky has been aged a minimum of four and a half years in used Islay (ex Laphroaig) quarter cask barrels. It’s an outstanding dram that has justifiably garnered considerable praise from a number of the Whisky world's heavyweights, proving our point that age statements are not necessarily all we should be looking at when judging the quality in the glass." - Bibendum
“For all its youth, the excellence of quality glimmers from the glass: a malt as beautifully flighted as a cricket ball delivered by the most crafted of spinners. It offers delightful turn on the palate, too. Superb delivery. Yes, this may be a youngster, but the weight of barley-enriched oil is wonderful, especially seeing as there is not a single note of feintiness to be had. With this oil, the smoke, so apparent on the nose, plays a lesser role, though it still hangs around to give lightly peated accent to the gentle cocoa.” - Jim Murrays Whiskey Bible
