The intriguing story behind our square bottle design adds an extra layer of charm to the iconic appeal of our Finest whisky. During the era of prohibition, a time of clandestine activities and hidden indulgence, our bottles were ingeniously crafted to serve a practical purpose.

We believe that the square shape was intentionally chosen to cater to the needs of American salesmen during that time. With the threat of inspectors looming, these square bottles provided a discreet solution. Salesmen could slip a bottle or two into their briefcases, confident that the unique shape would prevent any unwanted rolling or rattling that could raise suspicions.

While the days of prohibition are long gone, and the need for secrecy has dissipated, we have chosen to preserve this distinct, unusual shape that holds a piece of history within its form. The square bottle design continues to be a beloved trademark of our whisky, reminding us of a bygone era while capturing the imagination of whisky enthusiasts worldwide.

So, embrace the heritage and uniqueness of our square bottle, knowing that its origins stem from a time when our whisky was sought after and cherished even in the face of adversity. You no longer need to hide it away—it can proudly take its place in your collection, ready to be shared and enjoyed without constraint. Raise your glass to the enduring spirit of our Finest whisky and the remarkable journey it has taken, from the hidden corners of history to the forefront of enjoyment and appreciation today.

NOSE
