We are finding it hard to contain our excitement for the launch of our new addition to the Friar John Cor Cask Strength Congregation series. Friar John Cor Chapter III is a truly special dram that showcases just what our distilling team is capable of. Starting with our award-winning new make spirit, journeying through bourbon, Amontillado and Pedro-Ximenez casks, and then marrying together in magnificent sherry butts, the finished product is one that we are immensely proud of.

But – where and when can you get your hands on it? Launching on 27th May, Friar John Cor Chapter III will be available to buy exclusively from our wonderful stockists.

There is no denying that running a bottle shop in the current climate is not easy. Margins are tight, costs are high and loyalty is fragile. Yet, these shops still show up and open their doors for whisky lovers, or whisky shoppers, like you. These shops are not just shelves. They are years of knowledge, experience, curation and passion – they are people.

That’s why we’re releasing Friar John Cor Chapter II to our stockists first, before it goes anywhere else. We chose to prioritise those who have been championing whisky long before hashtags did, and those who have always supported Lindores.

Buying a bottle of Friar John Cor Chapter III from one of our stockists not only gets you a great bottle of whisky, it also supports a business fighting to retain something personal in a world that’s going generic.
