Short spicy dry finish with the caramel and honey coming through clean as day. The peat reappears for a second and then disappears again. The milled grain is then moved on to step two—mashing—when it is mixed with hot water and heated up according to precise temperatures and specifications designed just for Pig’s Nose Whiskey production. The mash liquefies saccharides present in malted barley, creating a liquid known as “wort” that contains much of what will eventually become alcohol. After mashing has been completed, fermentation begins when yeast cells feed off of sugars found in wort until ethanol has been created (known as “wash”). It takes approximately five days for fermentation time depending on temperature levels during operation.

The name “Pig’s Nose” is derived from its easy, mellow character. As it says on the label, “‘Tis said our scotch is as soft and smooth as a pig’s nose.” Pig's Nose is a blended scotch brand owned by Spencerfield Spirits (who also own the blended malt Sheep Dip and Edinburgh Gin), which was founded by former Glenmorangie marketing director Alex Nicol. Pig's Nose was first created in 1977, though the current bottling was re-blended by Richard Paterson, from single malts from Speyside, Islay and the Lowlands, and grain whisky from Invergordon. Their slogan is "'Tis said that our scotch is as soft and as smooth as a pig's nose." Could this be true?

During this stage of production, wash accumulates along with ferments that ought to be removed judiciously as not all ferments are good for whiskeys like Pig’s Nose; some impart unpleasant flavors while others diminish product quality over time if left too long in their raw distilled form. Distillers must therefore know precisely what needs to go versus what should stay behind after each round of separating out undesired ferments through carefully monitored condensation processes within specialized stilling apparatus called pot stills or Coffey stills (also referred to as “column or continuous stills”). Pigs Nose however is not a vatted whisky, but a blend and from what I've heard there are something like 26 different single malts that have gone into this little guy, malts from Islay, Speyside and the Highlands. Now I'd tried it's big brother, Sheep Dip Old Hebridean 1990 Vintage, a smokey giant vatted whisky involving malts from Ardbeg, Dalmore and Fettercairn. There is also a burst if apples and lemons that serve to give a lovely tang against the smooth toffee, which eventually melts into caramel.

Pig’s Nose. Sheep Dip. Monkey Shoulder. Pig’s Nose is a blended scotch from Ian McCloud, makers of Smokehead, Sheep Dip, Isle of Skye, owners of the Glengoyne and Tamdhu distilleries, and the name behind, well, a bunch of other brands. Pig’s Nose Whiskey is a delightful spirit made in Scotland that combines the strength of Scotch whisky and the smoothness of Irish whiskey together to create a unique blend. The distillation process used to make this whiskey is quite complex and requires several steps, ranging from milling and mashing the grain all the way through to bottling. To understand exactly how Pig’s Nose Whiskey comes to fruition, let us take an in-depth look at the entire distillation process. The key to Pigs Nose Whiskey’s success is its unique blend of malts from Speyside, Highlands, Islay and Lowlands whiskeys. This creates a sweet and smooth finish with heathery floral notes and underlying hints of smokey peat. It has a smoky flavour balanced with dry oak wood spices. The light bodied spirit allows for easy sipping making this enjoyable even if you don’t usually like peaty whiskies.
