It is made from malted barley infused with peat smoke during drying, a nod to Wolfburn's history, since the original nineteenth-century distillery was largely fired by peat. After gentle distillation, the whisky matures in purpose-built warehouses, giving a beautifully smooth and rounded result. The original Wolfburn fell silent in the 1870s, and industry veterans revived the name in Thurso in 2011.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInitially smoky on the nose, with fruit, fresh sea air, vanilla and oak wood shavings.
