Description
History
Wilson & Morgan is a brand that was acquired in 1992 by Rossi & Rossi, an importer with extensive experience selecting luxury spirits and champagne. Wilson & Morgan offers a refined collection of rare whiskies, with an artisanal, typically Scottish character, aged in barrels that previously contained other spirits or fine wines such as rum, Marsala and port, thus enriching their sensorial notes.
Production method
The process begins with the malting of the barley, during which the starches present in the cereal are broken down into simple sugars suitable for alcoholic fermentation. This occurs in three phases: maceration of the barley in water, germination and drying. Subsequently, the barley is ground and added again with hot water, extracting the must which will be fermented and distilled. The final refinement, including the choice of the right wood, is fundamental for the sensations that the distillate will acquire.
