Released in 2009, this is South Africa's first ever single grain whisky, coming from the The James Sedgwick Distillery in Wellington. Bain's Cape Mountain whisky is matured in first fill bourbon casks for an initial three years before spending a further two years in fresh first fill bourbon casks! It's named after the chap who built the first roads in Wellington.
Nose: Grapefruit peels, custard creams and icing sugar. Soon followed by nutmeg and vanilla sugar. Lightness throughout.
Palate: Soft and well-rounded with continued vanilla cream. Fresh pear, banana and hints of cardamom and oak.
Finish: The sweet citrus peels return, along with a little bit of meadowsweet.

I've just cracked into my bottle. Lovely sweet fruity nose with custard and caramel. On the palate I enjoy a pleasant light flavour with oak, aromatic spiciness and sweet fruit. The finish is very pleasant, lingering nicely with a warmth and oakiness.This is pleasant light whisky, light but not at all boring. There's a lovely creamy dessert thing going on here. I recommend highly at the price.

Something different. A New World Whisky unlike any other.I heard about this when it won best single grain whisky in the world (2013), piqued my interest.Finally getting around to try it. Pronounced fruit and smooth.Would buy - good entry level.Skeptical on where to place it, as its one of the only new world whisky that's not trying to replicate what Scotland or America does.Try it for yourself - may not be for everyone.

Its one of my favorite whisky's given that unlike other Bourbons, you can actually enjoy it just o the rocks and the fruity flavors are super pronounced.I love Bains a chilled day and when taking a break from the peated Islay malts which are my favorites

Perhaps not all that traditional, the tropical cocktail of whiskeys.
