Sheep Dip Blended Malt Whisky is a handcrafted Scotch whisky that is a blend of single malt whiskies from different regions of Scotland. The name 'Sheep Dip' comes from a historical term used by farmers who hid their whiskies from the authorities in casks labelled 'Sheep Dip', a common farm product. This premium whisky is inspired by the entrepreneurship of Scottish farmers who took it upon themselves to distil their own whisky, making it a tribute to the hidden richness of Scotland's history.
