Manufacturing of the 7 Years Old Càrn Mòr Auchroisk by Morrison

The production of the 7 Years Old Càrn Mòr Auchroisk by Morrison begins with the selection of carefully chosen malted barley, which gives the whiskey its characteristic malty profile. Malting is carried out traditionally to develop flavors of caramel and fresh grains. The water comes from the purest sources in the Scottish Highlands, which lends the distillate its clear freshness and purity.

Following mashing, fermentation takes place with selected yeast strains that produce fruity esters. The distillation is conducted twice in copper stills, known for their intense contact with copper. This process ensures fine filtration and imparts a smooth, velvety texture to the spirit.

The maturation of the whiskey takes place for at least seven years in carefully selected oak casks. Preferably, American white oak and European oak barrels are used, releasing gentle vanilla and spice notes as well as subtle wood nuances. Through the gentle aging process, a harmonious balance of fruitiness, spice, and a creamy mouthfeel is created.

Overview of the manufacturing steps:

1. Selection of high-quality malted barley
2. Mashing and fermentation with pure yeast
3. Double distillation in copper stills
4. Minimum of seven years aging in oak barrels
5. Careful bottling with quality control
