2025 Laird of Fintry Cask Strength Single Malt Whisky
This quadruple-gold (World Spirits Awards gold medal 2015, 2017, 2020, 2025) winning whisky is presented in our 2024 Heritage Edition bottles. Meticulously reworked to commemorate 100 years of fine whisky in the Okanagan, every detail of the bottle is fashioned after an extremely rare unopened 1924 Laird of Fintry.
IS IT SCOTCH?
If the Laird of Fintry was made in Scotland it would be, but as only Single Malt Whiskies made in Scotland can call themselves “Scotch”, we celebrate ours as BC’S Original Single Malt Whisky! The Laird is homegrown Okanagan to its core and fiercely proud of it.
FLAVOUR PROFILE
After 5 or more years in our custom virgin white oak casks, our whisky is then finished for additional 12 months in elegant Quails’ Gate fortified Foch barrels, giving it a silky-smooth mouth feel, complemented with the decadence of toasted oak, saddle leather, and rich tones of vanilla, plum, raisins, caramel and spice.
CASK STRENGTH
Known as ‘barrel-proof’ or ‘straight outta the barrel’, Cask Strength means you get a chance to taste our Laird of Fintry at full strength, in this case 56%, and only lightly filtered.
WHY ‘THE LAIRD OF FINTRY’?
The Laird of Fintry whisky holds a special place in history, tracing its roots back to the early 1900s when Captain Dun-Waters, the Laird (Lord) of the Fintry Delta, imported his private label whisky from Scotland. Okanagan Spirits proudly safeguards one of the remaining unopened bottles from the Laird’s 1924 collection, symbolizing a priceless artifact from the past.
To commemorate this legacy, our heritage edition bottle, first introduced in 2024, meticulously recreates the essence of the original Laird’s bottle, with details including the namesake, bottle shape, neck band, and label mirroring the historic design. While the original bottle remains on display at the Vernon distillery, Okanagan Spirits invites you to participate in the Laird Lottery for a chance to own a contemporary piece of Okanagan history.
As part of Okanagan Spirits commitment to conservation, a portion of the proceeds from Laird bottle sales will support the Friends of Fintry society in preserving the Laird’s former estate, now a cherished site within Fintry Provincial Park. With only 5,000 bottles available and high demand from over 35,000 enthusiasts eager to secure their piece of history, ensure you join the lottery for an opportunity to purchase the Laird of Fintry heritage edition.
