Spencerfield Spirit Company is based in the magnificent surroundings of the Firth of Forth. It is a family run business, owned by Alex Nicol and his wife Jane. Nicol was previously a marketing director for Glenmorangie before he chose to start his own Whisky adventure and Spencerfield was born. The first product to come out of Spencerfield was the humorously named Sheep Dip, which has been followed up by Pig's Nose and variations of itself.
Sheep Dip is a blended malt brilliantly named after the potent liquid used to delouse sheep. The full-bodied flavour is achieved by weaving together sixteen different single malt Whiskies, aged between eight and twenty years, in specially selected first-fill oak casks. It has been described by Jim Murray as “young and sprightly”, a nod towards its unique taste and smooth qualities.
