Lindores Abbey Friar John Cor - The Cask Strength Congregation Batch - Chapter 1 Whisky

A cracking cask-strength single malt from Lindores Abbey, matured in a charming congregation of casks. A combo of bourbon, Monbazillac sweet wine, STR, and sherry casks result in a rewardingly silky profile, with heaps of honeyed stone fruit, spiced nuts, figs, and dates. The black bottle is inspired by the tunics that would have been worn by the monks that roamed the grounds of Lindores Abbey back in 1494, including Friar John Cor, the monk commissioned to produce aqua vitae from malt in the first written reference to Scotch whisky! Bottled at a hearty 60.2% ABV, without added colour or chill filtration.
