The Uncharted Whisky Co.
Uncharted Whisky Co Blue Collection 8 Year Old Single Malt
The Uncharted Whisky Co. is an independent bottler from Fintry, Scotland, founded in 2020 by Jack Breslin and Dana Bulloch. Their releases are deliberately presented without the distillery name on the label — hence "off the grid malts" — and always without colouring or chill filtration. This Blue Collection 8 Year Old was assembled from a handful of ex-bourbon casks from the Aultmore distillery: an unpeated, refined Speyside single malt.

Food pairing
Lovely with white fish, fresh pineapple or a light lemon tart.
Why I chose this
At Uncharted the distillery is deliberately not splashed across the label, and that is exactly what I like: you taste first, the story comes afterwards. This eight-year-old Aultmore is fresh and refined, ideal for a summer evening or as the first glass of a tasting. It shows how pure ex-bourbon can taste.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does The Uncharted Whisky Co. not name the distillery on the label?
It is a deliberate choice: their releases are presented as 'off the grid malts', so that flavour rather than the name takes centre stage. This Blue Collection 8 Year Old comes from the Aultmore distillery in Speyside; we state that on the product page so you know what you are buying.
Is this Blue Collection 8 Year Old a good whisky to open a tasting with?
Yes, it is unpeated, light and fruity, and sits in Smooth & Fruity on our Flavour Compass. It does not overwhelm your palate straight away, so richer or smoky whiskies can still be tasted properly afterwards. At 46% ABV and without chill filtration, it still has plenty of body.
Which dish suits this Speyside single malt?
Light, fresh dishes work best. Think of white fish, fresh pineapple or a light lemon tart: they echo the fruity, floral character of the ex-bourbon casks. Serve the whisky neat or with a few drops of water so the fruit comes through well.
