Wemyss Malts new range of blended malts have scooped up a trio of Silver awards at the International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC). Peat Chimney achieved a Silver Outstanding.
This follows recent awards on the The Spirits Business Whisky Masters and the International Spirits Challenge.

The Wemyss blended malts are named after each whisky's natural flavours and aromas: The Hive with natural honeyed notes, Spice King for its sweet spicy character and Peat Chimney for its gentle smokiness.
