About this spirit
Wormtub
Wormtub is a small-batch Scotch whisky first bottled in 2022, produced by independent bottler Atom Labs. Sourced from an undisclosed Speyside distillery, the whisky is chosen for its heavy, robust flavour profile. Sam Simmons, winner of the Blender of the Year title at the Spirits Business Awards 2023, leads the team here. The whisky takes its name from the worm tub condenser, a traditional piece of distilling equipment comprised of long coiled tubes of copper housed in a large vat of cold water.

Barley
Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
