Blended Scotch Whisky (700 ml)

The Deacon takes its name from Deacon William Brodie, the 18th-century Edinburgh cabinet-maker and town councillor who moonlighted as a burglar — a double life that became the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. The brand leans into

that duality: a blended Scotch designed to wear two faces, approachable enough for daily pours yet carrying the structural character of traditional Scottish blending craft.

As a blended Scotch, The Deacon combines grain whisky — typically lighter, column-distilled spirit — with malt whiskies drawn from Scottish distilleries. The grain component delivers a soft cereal sweetness and smooth texture, while the malt fraction contributes dried fruit, light vanilla, and a thread of smoke.

No age statement is declared, positioning this as an NAS blend optimised for consistency across batches rather than vintage character.

The Deacon sits as an entry-level expression that prioritises drinkability and cocktail versatility over complexity — unusual in that its Brodie narrative gives the blend genuine cultural storytelling weight.
