We are very proud to present the third bottle of Founders' Reserve exclusively to our members. After a great amount of patience and hard work, Kingsbarns are very proud of this bottling.

 

Peter discusses the launch: "I am delighted to announce the release of the third Founders' Club Reserve bottling! Aged exclusively in ex-Peated barrels and unleashed at a cask strength of 61.6%, the team and I are all incredibly proud of this bottling. It signifies a significant building block of flavour to the Founders' Club bundle and truly the next step in the journey of Kingsbarns… Just as we celebrate our 6th anniversary since opening in November 2014. This new arrival is multi-layered, complex and stands alone in terms of anything we have previously released. Slainte Mhath."
