Over 500 Years Of Patience
Lindores Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Our First Public Release
Lindores Single Malt Scotch Whisky MCDXCIV (1494)
Lindores is all about patience – it has taken us more than twenty years to turn our dream into a reality and deliver the first Lindores Abbey Scotch Whisky from here in more than 500 years.
We are delighted to bring our Single Malt to whisky lovers the world over. Our scotch whisky was released on 2nd July 2021, and is now available TO BUY ONLINE or from our specialist stockists in the UK
Friar Joh Cor Cask Strength Congregation Chapter III
An exquisite and unique single malt Scotch whisky matured in ex-bourbon, Amontillado sherry, and Pedro-Ximenez sherry casks, then vatted and allowed to marry in Sherry butts
Non-chill filtered and bottled onsite at cask strength of 60.2%. Offering a sweet, inviting nose with treacle, red apples, honey and dried fruits, the palate then reveals a rich mix of dark syrup, raisins, warm spices and dark chocolate. All of this is carried by a velvety texture with a lingering finish of chocolate fudge and sweet cinnamon.
Housed in an elegant black bottle, this dram celebrates the rich history of Lindores, and the man to whom we owe it all, Friar John Cor himself.
Available through selected stockists and in our online shop from June 9th 2025.
Casks of Lindores
These ‘Casks of Lindores’ releases were originally released and sold exclusively through selected stockists but are now also for sale online through our SHOP.
Packaged in the distinctive Lindores bottle and livery with colour specific base labels these bottlings are bottled at the distillery without chill filtration and at our Lindores bottling strength of 49.4%.
The Makar’s Malt II
In 2024 we were thrilled to be selected to produce The Makar’s Malt II, a charity collaboration between Kathleen Jamie, the Scots Makar (Scotland’s national poet), and the Scotch Whisky Association.
Released on World Whisky Day, the 18th May 2024 in a limited edition of just 481 bottles, this single malt Scotch Whisky marked Kathleen Jamie’s tenure as Makar and was a heartfelt ode to Scottish heritage.
With every bottle sold, 10% was donated to the Makar’s Legacy Fund, supporting the vibrant voices of contemporary Scottish poets in a professionally recorded podcast series of interviews and readings.
DISTILLERY EXCLUSIVES
At different times throughout the year we have single cask distillery exclusive bottlings available in our shop, just for pilgrims who make their way to the Spiritual Home of Scotch whisky.
As a small, family run Scottish distillery, we wanted to be able to find a way to keep the distillery alive and productive during the quieter months, when visitors can be a bit scarce on the ground. These bottles are not available online and cannot be bought over the phone or set aside.
Our First Member’s Release
The 1494
Exclusively available to 1494 members, members received a complimentary bottle (1 of only 1494) from our first distillery bottling of Lindores Abbey Single Malt Whisky (70CL), bearing their Membership Number, sitting on a personalised plinth made from the dunnage wood upon which our first casks sat on.
The 1494 Membership is now closed.
Lindores Single Malt Scotch Whisky MCDXCIV (1494) “Commemorative First Release”
The first 12,750 bottles of our Single Malt were commemoratively labelled to celebrate our launch.
They were ONLY available to the public from specialist stockists in the UK.
We made the decision to sell them exclusively through our distributors and the whisky shops that have supported us over the last few years, and who we could in turn support.
