Port Finish
Ooh, it's an indie Balemnach - you don't see all that much of this distillery's single malt! This one was first distilled in May 2013 and aged in a refill hogshead, before being finished in a tawny Port quarter cask. It was bottled by The Whisky Cellar in March 2021, with only 97 bottles produced.
Vibrant hints of juicy raspberry and plum, balanced by savoury nuts and robust malt.
Cedar warmth arrives first, but helpings of dried cherry help to mellow it out.
Slightly chocolatey on the finish, plus some toasted oak appearing later on.
