The Deacon Whisky

A blended malt named after Edinburgh's most notorious double life. Deacon William Brodie was a respected craftsman by day and a burglar by night - a story said to have inspired Robert Louis Stevenson's Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The Deacon deliberately plays on this duality: respectable on the surface, wilder underneath.
