Sir Rod Stewart, has announced the launch of a new blended
Scotch whisky.
Wolfie’s Whisky (40% ABV) was designed to reflect Rod’s rock
‘n’ roll heritage with subtle nods to Americana, and inspired by the musician’s
early hell raising days with the Faces.

| Rod Stewart launches Wolfie's Whisky |
Wolfie’s Whisky, which has been distilled, blended and bottled by the Loch Lomond Distillery, is said to deliver notes of cinnamon, fresh vanilla and baked apple on the nose, followed by notes of sweet peat, pears in syrup, candied citrus peels and a gentle oak spice on the palate.
Referencing the opening track from Rod’s 1991 album Vagabond
Heart, the lyrics ‘Rhythm of My Heart’ are emblazoned on the base of the
bottle. Rod’s recording of the song was a nod to his own Scottish heritage, having adapted the melody from the traditional folk song, Loch Lomond.
Commenting on the launch, Rod Stewart, said: “Wolfie’s is a
rascal of a thing and with just a sip the whisky takes you back to the good old
days. Fine-tuned and perfectly balanced, Wolfie’s is a delight both over ice
and mixed into a favourite cocktail. It’s a fine tipple, whether you’re
partying with friends, celebrating a Celtic win or reminiscing with family. For
me, Wolfie’s depicts the carefree behaviour of my more mischievous days and the
excitement of what life still has to offer – let the good times roll!”
Wolfie’s Whisky, will be available from June 19th via www.wolfiesiscoming.com and
specialist retailers, for a RRP of £35.00.
