Cambus

Cambus Distillery opened at Cambus near Alloa in 1806 to produce malt and grain whisky. Prior to closure in 1993 Cambus produced grain whisky. The buildings now house a Diagio cask filling centre. Cambus is a lost Scottish lowlands whisky distillery.

This whisky has a sweet, mellow nose of vanilla custard, butterscotch, pears, and apples. The palate is smooth with fudge and caramel to the fore, and a fruity fragrance coming through late. The sweet finish is long and dry, with some citrus notes.
