Description

A striking single cask bottling from Adnams – one of our favourite English distilleries, making one of our favourite rye whiskies on the planet! Distilled in 2016 and matured in a French oak wine cask, we filled just 340 bottles of this characterfully complex yet gluggable nine-year-old rye. The label has pure ‘90s retro football kit vibes and we’re sure plenty of you will recognise which particular England shirt inspired it. It’s a shame we can’t make a Tony Adams/Adnams joke as he didn’t make the England 1990 World Cup squad. Surely the greatest consequence of him struggling to contain Marco Van Basten in '88.

Nose

Creamy and spicy, woody and sweet, very appetising.

Palate

Tasty, textured, orange-cream, ginger, Victoria sponge, honey. Full of character and complexity but gluggable.

Finish

Complex but short, herby and spiced finish that demands another sip.

English rye is getting seriously good.

This rye is definitely doing something different but also familiar. It is all around the English take on rye whiskey and I think Its so exciting to see if we can get cask strength versions down the line of this incredible dram.

Outstanding

Like a peshwari naan in a glass. As a regular single malt drinker it took me aback at first but I just keep wanting to go back for more.
