Description
Did you know the word Casado means 'marriage' in Portuguese? A pretty appropriate name for a whisky that is aged in casks that previously held booze from Portugal, we reckon. So did Islay whisky maker Kilchoman, which took a vatting of its heavily-peated spirit and matured it for six years in 38 first-fill bourbon barrels before marrying them for a further two years in a pair of 6,000 litre Portuguese red wine vats, with char levels two and three. The 2022 release was then bottled up at 46% ABV without any additional colouring or filtration.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Bonfire smoke with dried apricot, Dr. Pepper, and some coastal salinity as well notes of marzipan and toffee apples underneath.
Palate
Black pepper is cracked over smoked fish as well as lemon peel, tannic wood, and stone fruits. There's a sweet jammy element present throughout.
Finish
Aromatic spice and red berry tartness linger.
