David, Lord Elcho, eldest son of the 5th Earl of Wemyss, was one of the most celebrated supporters of Bonnie Prince Charlie during the ill-fated Jacobite Rebellion of 1745. Born in Scotland and heir to the vast Wemyss Estate on the rocky shore of the Firth of Forth, Lord Elcho was educated at Winchester College, England and then military school at Angers, France before travelling to Italy where he met the young Charles Edward Stewart in 1740.
For the significant role that he played in the uprising, and in recognition of his loyalty and uncompromising bravery at the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745, Elcho was appointed colonel of the Prince’s lifeguards. He remained with the Young Pretender until his defeat at the Battle of Culloden in 1746 when, as punishment for his part in the uprising, Elcho was stripped of his lands and title and forced into exile in France. He pursued a military career on the continent, but sadly was never able to return to his native Scotland.
Lord Elcho premium blended Scotch whisky is imbued with the refined masculine spirit of its namesake. Smooth, rich and aged to perfection it is truly a noble whisky with a noble heritage.

Founded by William Wemyss in 2005, he utilised his background expertise in premium French wine making and the family’s Scottish roots to begin exploring the blending of quality single malt whiskies. Whisky, new make spirit, oak casks and mature whisky are expertly sourced by William’s sister, Isabella Wemyss, to produce superior, small-batch blended malt Scotch whiskies. Wemyss Malts takes a careful and focused approach to blending, using only a small selection of whisky from hand-picked casks to carefully craft distinctive and flavourful blended malt Scotch whiskies (previously known as ‘vatted or ‘pure’ malt Scotch whiskies). Wemyss Malts utilise core and signature malt whiskies from multiple Scottish regions. They source and mature whisky stock of varying ages for their recipes. This provides the blenders with a plethora of flavours that allow for the crafting of complex blended malt scotch whiskies. The aim is to always delight whisky drinkers with distinctly flavoured recipes whilst always striving for balance and smoothness.
