Scotch whisky distillery produces single malt for train journeys

 

A Scotch whisky distillery has unveiled a new collaboration with East Coast Main Line rail company Lumo.

Edinburgh-based Holyrood Distillery has co-branded a specially designed, single malt Scotch whisky, which is being served from this week exclusively onboard Lumo services operating between Edinburgh, Newcastle and London King’s Cross.

The distillery said: “Since opening in 2019 in Scotland’s capital city, Holyrood Distillery has created an award-winning range of whisky and spirits informed by the landscape and brewing history of Edinburgh. The distillery also has a connection with rail travel; the distillery building at the foot of the Salisbury Crags was once used as a storage building for the Edinburgh and Dalkeith railway in the 19th century.”
