 Blackadder
was founded in 1995 by Robin Tucek who you may know as
co-author with John Lamond of the
popular whisky book "The Malt Whisky
File: The Essential Guide for the Malt
Whisky Connoisseur."
Blackadder believes in bottling only
whiskies that are completely natural and
all Blackadder whiskies are Robin
Tucek's personal
selection.
Robins challenge, is to select
and bottle only individual casks as
naturally as possible. To ensure this
they only give their whiskies a light
filtration to remove any cask particles
that may otherwise get into the bottle. Blackadder Raw Cask whiskies, however,
are completely unfiltered.
All Blackadder whiskies are single cask
bottlings. This also applies to whiskies
bottled under all Blackadder
International labels such as; Aberdeen
Distillers, Clydesdale Original and
Caledonian Connections whiskies. Every
cask is different, thus making a hugely
complex and varied selection of
different whiskies available to choose
from.
Each cask is chosen to represent one of
the very best examples of its type and
age. No two casks of whisky are ever
exactly alike, because the type of oak
used and the conditions under which it
is stored will both influence the
ultimate spirit produced. Blackadder
whiskies therefore offer the widest
possible variety of singular taste
experiences.
Most of the bottlings are bottled at 43%
- 45% ABV but there are also some cask
strength expressions. They release
around 100 new bottlings each year.
