Wine Cask
This single malt Scotch whisky was distilled at Blair Athol in 2009 and filled into a single wine cask to mature. 12 years later, the folks at indie bottler Chapter 7 decided it would make the perfect addition to the Monologue series, so they opened up the cask to release a total of 258 bottles. The wine cask influence is certainly apparent, with delicious grape and fruit notes balancing the rich malty core.
Toasted almonds, a touch of floral vanilla followed by raisins, and a hint of oily oak.
More vinous fruit, alongside a touch of plum. Honeyed nuttiness continues, with sweet sultanas and baking spice building.
A prickle of pepper creeps in, balanced by nutty malt and a touch of zest.
