Special #25

This peated malt whisky has the beautiful color of old gold with a rich and luscious flavor profile that far exceeds its youthfulness. The whisky expresses those typical notes that you would expect from a relatively youthful peated whisky with a full maturation in white port casks. Despite the full maturation in white port casks the first impression is fresh more than sweet. When you give the whisky a little time in your glass, the whisky shines with its warm and complex character. The unique qualities of this whisky come from the use of a crystal-clear wort that is slowly fermented for 7 days and the slow distillation method with the relatively early cut point. After distillation the whisky had a full maturation in white port casks that give the whisky its beautiful color and adds to the elegant sweetness and rich complex flavor.

Tasting Notes:

Color: Dark Gold.

Nose: Fresh and fruity with rich and warm undertones. The whisky first impression is it feels tremendously mature and combined. The gorgeous fruit aromas of warm stewed peaches are supported by the smokiness of this peated whisky, this develops into a rich and complex whisky that has a definite lemon and citrus character to balance those campfire smokey notes. 

Taste: Wonderfully balanced. Warm notes of apricots, oranges and various other citrus aroma’s balanced with the deep and interesting smokey notes of the peat. 

 Finish: Long and slightly drying with great complexity.
