Day 22 I am a sucker for a good story and Angel’s Nectar was formed on one, read it below. Other than that there are some interesting hints out there about which distilleries might have gone into this blend and boy do they deliver. Let’s dig in.

Story
Inspired by the Angels’ share, the traditional name given to the whisky lost to evaporation during maturation, Angels’ Nectar is our collection of Blended Malt and Single Malt Scotch Whiskies, showcasing different styles of Scotch Whisky.
At any one time, there are an estimated twenty million whisky casks maturing across Scotland, all exposed to the full thirst of the Angels. The Angels take their pick; selfishly enjoying some casks more than others, whilst hard working distillers watch their efforts disappear. Imagine if you could join the Angels on their indulgence?
Angels’ Nectar is our ‘cut’ of the Angels’ Share, bottled for your enjoyment. The First Edition (also known as Original) of Angels’ Nectar has been carefully blended from a selection of the finest Speyside and Highland malt whiskies. The Rich Peat Edition, which oozes a welcoming smoke, is composed from Highland malts. The Islay Edition is a Single Malt dominated by a gentle island peat smoke. Our new Cairngorms Edition is a Single Cask Speyside Single Malt bottled in partnership with the Cairngorms Trust to support Environmental and Community projects in the Cairngorms National Park.
