The Story in the Weave
The Angels’ Share® Tartan, created by Steven Patrick Sim, honours the mystery and romance of whisky maturation. Inspired by the symbolic 2% of spirit lost to evaporation during aging—known as the angels’ share—this tartan celebrates Scotland’s world-famous national drink and the ethereal transformation that shapes it.
Each colour in the tartan tells a story, representing a key element of whisky creation:
-
Amber – symbolising the spirit itself (…and 40% proof)
-
Ochre – representing fermenting yeast
-
Brown – evoking the oak casks
-
Blue – for the pure Scottish water
-
Indigo – recalling the coal that fires the stills
-
Yellow – the richness of ripened barley
-
White – the angels taking their share
Together, these hues form a sacred palette of light, nature, and spirit—wrapping the wearer in the luminous geometry and tradition of the Angels’ Share® tartan.
