In 2016 Iain Croucher began North Star Spirits in Glasgow after working for the independent bottler AD Rattray. North Start has since bottled a wide variety of both Single Malt and Blended Scotch Whisky including some American whiskies too. The brand is named after the star ‘Polaris’ – the current Northern pole star. The theme of astronomy continues with various releases being named after other stars in the universe including ‘Vega’ and ‘Sirius’. The bottler was awarded ‘Independent Bottler of the Year’ at the Scottish Whisky Awards in 2020.
After the great success of the Tarot Blend, there is now the sequel. Again, the malt whiskey ingredients used come from distilleries in the Edrington Group, the grain from the North British distillery. 25% malt whisky is used and 75% grain whisky. Matured in Refill Oloroso Sherry Butts. However, this time from the whisky was distilled in 2010 and bottled at no less than 12 years. The ABV is now a palate pleaser at 45.5% ABV. A great, collectable series of whisky by North Star Spirits.
