Mossburn Island Blended Malt Island Blended Malt Scotch Whisky: Island Character at an Exceptional Value

Discover a distinctive Scotch whisky that brings together the character of Scotland’s islands with thoughtful cask finishing and remarkable value. Mossburn Island Blended Malt Island Blended Malt Scotch Whisky is a carefully created 70cl expression bottled at 46% ABV, offering plenty of flavour and a satisfying depth without the premium price often associated with highly crafted island malts.

Mossburn is known for exploring the influence of different casks, and this whisky is a fine example of that hands-on approach. The blend begins with malt whiskies sourced from the Scottish islands and matured in American oak barrels.

The result is a whisky with a rewarding balance of island warmth, oak influence, gentle sweetness and lively seasoning.
