Another cracking addition to the Strictly Limited collection from indie bottler Càrn Mòr! This single malt was distilled in 2012 and filled into ex-bourbon barrels to mature. Nine years later, the folks at Càrn Mòr knew it was the perfect time to crack open the casks, so in 2021 they did just that, releasing a total of 1,128 bottles.
Earthy malt and bold oak open the way, with crusty bread, floral tea, and crisp orchard fruits.
A hearty helping of vanilla starts things off, with notes of citrus and poached pear, oily barley, and a slow build of warming spice.
Pepper and cinnamon arrive, while vegetal malt and nutty oak rest in the depths. Caramel sweetness and more fruity pear continue.
