Single Cask Whisky Batch #3 SM9917 - Toasted Amber Single Malt
This Single Cask is a spectacular union of malt, spirit and serendipity, epitomising the beauty found in rare single casks. Distilled from carefully selected toasted amber malt, it was matured in an American oak ex-bourbon cask, resulting in a single malt whisky with an exceptional balance of sweet fruit and savoury malt. The nose offers evocative aromas of sun-ripened passionfruit, cookies-and-cream ice cream, and jelly beans, while the palate delivers pineapple, cinnamon muffins, and Maltesers in a stunning display of rare quality.
Flavour profile
Nose
Opening on the nose with the evocative aromas of sun ripened passionfruit, cookies and cream ice cream and white jellybeans. There is a savoury backbone here giving candle wax, oatmeal and sultana.
Palate
The palate is chewy, unctuous and rich in texture, occupying every crevace of the palate and conveying flavours of tinned pineapple, cinnamon muffins, roasted pecans, maltesers and citrus sherbert.
Finish
The finish is long and dovetails perfectly with faint traces of digestive bisuit and creme anglaise.
