This got me thinking: there’s a plethora of content on the internet around what “Scotch Whisky” is, but not so much of a peek behind the curtain to show what a typical distillery needs to provide in order to be allowed to use that protected term.

At the heart of every spirit we make at North Point sits a small collection of copper stills, each with its own role, personality, and purpose. In our distillery, those four stills are Nettie, Gertie, Stroma and Audrey.
