Glen Peel : Newbie question

Dec 26, 2005 7 Replies

Some nice member of this NG brought me here...



I'm the owner of a bottle of : "Pure Highland Single Malt" Glen Peel



Aged since 1991 edition



Distilled and mature in Ross-shire


However neither Google, nor the Ross-shire site gives details about this French whisky

Thanks !

It is were I went through Google :

However, I look about what is meant by :

Distilled and matured in Ross-shire ?

Can the distillery change from year to year ?

Mine is light bronze not dark bronze !

From reading some of the descriptions, like

"This whisky is issued from a single distillery, carefully selected in the Highlands",

I'm guessing that the Glen Peel and William Peel whiskies are distilled at other distilleries and then bottled under the Peel name, sorta like the McLelland whiskies.

I did find :

Dalmore Distillery, Alness, Ross-shire Glen Ord Distillery, Muir of Ord, Ross-shire Glenmorangie Distillery, Tam, Ross-shire Teaninich Distillery, Alness, Ross-shire

Is one more likely than the others ?

Philippe, if you can e-mail any of them directly, ask. Distilleries I've contacted have been very helpful.

Thanks for answering ! I shall try !!

Philippe

I hope it helps you.

An old friend is back in town. Last week, we sipped some Ardbeg 10, 46%, Laphroaig 10, 43% and Aberlour a'bunadh 60.2%. Today, Lagavulin 16, 43%, St. James Ambre Royal Rum de Martinique 45% and Gusano Rojo Mezcal. The Mezcal was only 38%, so we had to have several of them. ;-)
