The first incarnation of Sheep Dip whisky was Original Oldbury Sheep Dip, an 8-year-old blend of 16 single malts. The quaint and intriguing name was allegedly (I’ll repeat that, allegedly) chosen to ensure that West Country farmers could put invoices for cases of it through their books without accountants noticing.Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA.

With Heriot Watt we’ve developed a strong understanding of botanicals, and are developing a botanical dictionary, if you like, of which botanicals give exactly what effects. It’s a science. We did a lot of work on wood finishes when I was with Glenmorangie, and that was all much less specific than the use of botanicals.

The whiskies are aged between eight and twelve years in quality first fill wood, each adding unique characteristics to produce an exceptional product. Farmers merchants continued this tradition by entering cases of whisky as Sheep dip on farmers bills and so pulling the wool over the farmers wives eyes. Brand extensions have so far included Sheep Dip Islay, 1999 Amoroso Oloroso and 1990 Old Hebridean variations.

Welcome!

Although I enjoy gin, whisky is still my favourite drink. There’s so much variety and it’s in my blood. I love Glenmorangie, Springbank, The Macallan and Highland Park– a great whisky. I’m also partial to Glengoyne, and I always get an interesting bottle of it from my mate Leonard [Russell, managing director of Glengoyne owner Ian Macleod Distillers] every Christmas. Much mythology has grown up around whisky but in reality a great whisky does not have to be the product of one distillery nor should its age be a measure of quality.
