About Spencerfield
Surrounded by rolling fields of wheat and barley, whilst overlooking the Firth of Forth and monumental Forth Rail Bridge, lies Spencerfield Farmhouse. Steeped in fascinating heritage, the 16th century Fife farmhouse is home to the Spencerfield Spirit Company and its unique, iconoclastic collection of exceptional spirits. Set up by former marketing director of Glenmorangie, and whisky aficionado, Alex Nicol, Spencerfield Spirits prides itself on being a close-knit, family run business. A business where Alex and his wife Jane are whole-heartedly dedicated to providing a quality niche alternative to the more conventional mainstream brands. Their flagship product, the irreverently named, yet seriously flavoursome Sheep Dip was developed in 1970, with it stablemate, the seductively smooth Pig’s Nose being launched three year later. Both award winning whiskies have recently been joined by refreshingly indulgent Edinburgh Gin and the 1990 Old Hebridean, a first vintage for Sheep Dip. Now we’d like to invite you to take some time out and get to know about us, and Spencerfield Spirits a little better. We’ve a wide range of discerningly different products; something to meet everyone’s taste.

The Feathery Blended Malt Scotch Whisky
The Feathery is a small batch, handcrafted, premium blend of old and rare Scotch malt whiskies from esteemed Highland distilleries, matured entirely in first-fill sherry casks. Slightly sweeter, fuller and more rounded than standard malt whiskies, The Feathery echoes its namesake – the perfectly rounded, painstakingly crafted original golf ball. The Feathery is a luscious blend of only the best malt whiskies, sourced exclusively from the Highland whisky-producing region of Scotland. This blended malt is matured only in first-fill sherry oak casks which impart a rich, sweet expression to the robust Highland malts. The whisky is the first expression in a range designed to celebrate original Scottish craftsmanship. The quirky, evocative name and backstory centres on invaluable ‘feathery’ golf balls which were, once upon a time, painstakingly handcrafted using feathers, tar and bird skin to make a satisfyingly rounded gaming companion. The perfectly hand-engineered were more streamlined and effective than those previously in use.
