Tales of the Worm Tub: Celebrating the bold, the rich, and the robust
This Creators Collection celebrates this old-school approach to whisky making and the bold, rich and robust flavours that this ancient form of condenser contributes.
Worm tubs are very much an anomaly in the whisky world nowadays, harking back to a bygone era before the more efficient shell and tube condenser came to dominate Scotland’s distilleries from the 1960s onwards.
“This trio provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of worm tub condensers. Here we have three whiskies from the same region, in the same flavour profile, yet each with their unique take on this old style of condenser. In each case, the maturation journey has imbued the whiskies with autumnal fruits, think bruised apples with brown sugar. These weightier spirits stand up well to such cask types, with their oily, nutty spirit character shining through. For me, the worm tubs add a deep and robust bass line, upon which the complex elements of each dram can be built.”
- Euan Campbell, head of whisky creation
