Wolfburn No. 177 Small Batch Release #8 Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
In stock
Wolfburn’s No. 177 Small Batch Release #8 was bottled in 2023 at 46% ABV and combines spirit matured in first-fill ex-bourbon hogsheads with whisky aged in first-fill Caribbean rum barrels. With an outturn of 4,900 bottles, it sits on the more characterful side of the distillery’s style, using the rum casks to add extra sweetness and depth without losing Wolfburn’s easy-drinking Highland profile.
That combination works especially well here, with the bourbon casks bringing vanilla and structure while the rum casks add molasses richness, soft fruit and a slightly more decadent edge. It gives the whisky a rounder, fuller style than a straightforward bourbon-matured release, while still keeping things balanced and approachable.

Tasting Notes
Nose
Roasted figs and prunes meet candied ginger. There’s a terrific depth of flavour with plum sauce and toffee meeting marzipan and sultanas.
Palate
Rum influence shines through with overtones of molasses ever present. Layers of sweetness unfurl over time, with fruit and honey notes beautifully bound together by silky oak tannins.
Finish
The finish is sticky, fruity, decadent and delicious.
