Wilson & Morgan

Wilson & Morgan is an independent bottler with a strong reputation for selecting exceptional Scotch whiskies and presenting them with both transparency and style. Founded in 1992 by Fabio Rossi, an Italian wine and spirits importer, Wilson & Morgan grew out of a deep family tradition of trading fine wines and spirits. Today, it stands as one of Europe’s most respected independent whisky brands, known for its ability to source distinctive casks from some of Scotland’s most sought-after distilleries.

The company specialises in bottling single malt Scotch whisky, often from well-known distilleries that prefer to keep their names off the label, as well as named releases from iconic producers. The team’s selection process focuses on character, balance, and individuality rather than following a fixed house style, meaning that every bottling tells its own story.

Wilson & Morgan is particularly known for its innovative cask finishing programme. While many independent bottlers bottle whisky exactly as it comes from the original cask, Wilson & Morgan frequently re-racks selected whiskies into high-quality wine or fortified wine casks for additional maturation. These can include sherry butts, port pipes, Marsala casks, rum barrels, or even high-end wine casks from Bordeaux and Burgundy. The result is a portfolio that offers traditional Scotch profiles alongside more adventurous, flavour-enhanced expressions.

The range includes both younger, vibrant malts bottled at approachable strengths and older, complex whiskies released at cask strength for the serious enthusiast. This versatility makes Wilson & Morgan appealing to newcomers looking for distinctive flavour experiences as well as seasoned collectors searching for rare, one-off releases.

Each bottling is released in limited quantities, often just a few hundred bottles, and is clearly labelled with the distillation year, bottling year, cask type, and other key details. This commitment to transparency reflects the company’s wine-world heritage, where vintage and provenance are central to value.

Wilson & Morgan’s catalogue has featured whiskies from across Scotland’s regions — from Speyside and Highland fruit-led malts to Islay’s smoky, maritime drams and the gentle florals of the Lowlands. Fans of cask strength Islay whiskies, sherried Speyside malts, or unusual wine-cask finishes will all find something of interest in their lineup.

In terms of flavour, Wilson & Morgan bottlings are as varied as the casks and distilleries they come from. A sherry cask Speyside malt might deliver rich layers of dried fruit, toffee, and spice; a refill bourbon Highland whisky could offer bright citrus, vanilla, and malt sweetness; while a peated Islay bottling finished in a rum cask might combine smoky power with tropical fruit and molasses.

Our Wilson & Morgan selection showcases the best of this independent bottler’s philosophy: quality over quantity, individuality over uniformity, and an adventurous approach to cask selection. Whether you’re looking for a well-aged single cask from a classic distillery, a bold and unusual finish, or a rare bottling that you won’t see twice, Wilson & Morgan offers a gateway to some of the most characterful and collectible whiskies in today’s market.
