Orkney 12 Year Old (Chorlton Whisky)
A somewhat mysterious single malt independently bottled by Chorlton Whisky, produced at an undisclosed Orkney distillery. There are very few whisky distilleries on Orkney, so you might be able to guess which one it came from. The whisky was aged for 12 years in a single bourbon hogshead before being bottled without additional colouring or chill-filtration at a hefty 62.9% ABV. The painting on the label seems to show either a lunar eclipse, or the apocalypse.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Fragrant honey and toasted almonds, grassy malt, a hint of damp oak.
Palate
Aniseed balls, black pepper, cooked apples and salted butter.
Finish
Crunchy brown sugar, a burst of citrus and lasting fiery ginger.
