Masthouse Single Malt (Double Pot Distilled) 50cl Whisky
Masthouse Single Malt (Double Pot Distilled)
The Copper Rivet Distillery in Chatham, Kent has created Masthouse Single Malt, made in accordance to the distillery's very own Invicta Whisky Charter (yes, the distillers have a charter, setting out the rules and standards to which their whiskies will be produced!). This expression is distilled from Kentish malted barley from the nearby Isle of Sheppey, and was aged in a combination of ex-bourbon and virgin American white oak barrels. An impressive feat, and one that makes us excited to see what else Copper Rivet has up their sleeves...
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Apple and peachy fruit with cereal notes like malt and oats, with vanilla, cinnamon, marzipan, and a lift of lemon peel.
Palate
Creamy, with a full cereal texture, some peppery alcohol, you can feel the ABV. Smooth and round with porridge, chocolate digestive biscuits and that citrus peel note again.
Finish
Vanilla comes through strongly with oatcakes and custard.
Overall
Young but by no means raw or uncomplex. It’s smooth as hell and packed with flavour.
