Floreat 1824

In April 1822, Henry Cockburn and Leonard Horner went for a walk together in the Pentlands Hills and Lord Henry Cockburn noted in Memorials of His Time, published posthumously in 1856, “One day on top of the Pentlands – emblematic of the solidity of our foundation and of the extent of our prospects – we two resolved to set about the establishment of a new school.” With this walk, the vision for the Academy was born.

In honour of their momentous vision, and to commemorate the upcoming bicentennial, we are delighted to introduce our limited edition Floreat 1824. A marriage of seven specially selected American oak sherry octaves of Ardnamurchan Single Malts the youngest of which is six years of age. Two octaves were filled with peated whisky giving the final dram a delicate hint of smokiness.
