VISITORS TO Edinburgh Castle can take home a slightly different Edinburgh Castle 10-Year-Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky this year after Historic Environment Scotland (HES) revealed a refreshed recipe, packaging design and bottle shape.
Paying homage to the eponymous icon behind the single malt, the simplified label showcases a sketch of Edinburgh Castle, while allowing the russet-coloured liquid to speak for itself as it shines through the bottle.
Extending the range, the single malt – distilled and bottled in Scotland and exclusively sold at Edinburgh Castle shops and the Stòr online shop – is now also available in three sizes: 5cl (£7.50), 20cl (£24) and 70cl (£56).
Natasha Troitino, head of retail at Historic Environment Scotland, which operates Edinburgh Castle, said: “We’re excited to launch our refreshed product which has completely transformed the look, feel and taste of our whisky, bringing it into 2023 while reflecting the history and heritage of its Scottish roots.
