Created to celebrate Scotch Whisky Scotland's world-famous national drink!

Historically known as Uisge Beatha, in Scottish Gaelic, the ancient name for the spirit was translated from the Latin Aqua Vitae meaning 'Water of Life'.

-

The tartan is designed to visibly portray 'the Angels' Share' - the 2% portion of distilled alcohol (said to be taken by the Angels) which evaporates though the oak barrel during the whisky maturation process.
