Distillery: Creative Whisky Company

The Exclusive Regions series is a product from the Creative Whisky Company which embraces the, well, regionality of Scotch whiskys through single cask bottlings from various geographically unique producers. It’s the brain child of former Highland Park brand ambassador David Stirk, who caught the single barrel bug when he purchased one oak vessel’s worth of ex-Sherry cask Scotch whisky and resold it back in 2005. Flash forward to present day, and Stirk has bottled over 30 separate expressions of local, geostamped whisky under the banner of The Exclusive Regions. He’s also begun bottling territorial blends which best express the overall character of various Scotland whiskys. In addition to the single cask Exclusive Region project, Creative Whisky Company has also begun bottling some unique single malt expressions under a new title, Exclusive Malts. These are age statement-free whiskies are bottled at cask strength for the highest level of grain expression. With such a narrow focus in each bottle, the Exclusive series’ from CWC bring about a new tier in education Scotch whisky experiences, allowing anyone with access to these liquids the opportunity to learn more about the distinct flavors that the various recipe and terroir ingredients impart on this many-faceted whisky style.

Distillery Information

In 2005 Wm Cadenhead established The Creative Whisky Company with wife Dawn out of their home in Cambuslang, near Glasgow. It wasn’t until 2011 that the duo began bottling their own whiskies themselves at a warehouse in Stevenston, North Ayrshire. However the lease on the property was only short, and Creative eventually moved its operation to a site in Thornhill, Dumfries & Galloway in 2013.
