Inchfad 13 Year Old Pedro Ximénez Cask Finish (Darkness) (49.9%)
This 13 year old single malt from Loch Lomond, released under the Inchfad name, shows off a tasty balance of peaty and sherry! Inchfad is the name the distillery uses for its heavily peated single malt, and before this one was bottled up for the Darkness range, it was finished in a Pedro Ximénez sherry octave cask. The tiny octave casks offers a greater surface area to volume ratio than your run-of-the-mill cask, allowing for more interaction between the wood and the whisky.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Chocolate cake, salted caramel and a slowly growing hint of toasted oak.
Palate
The palate moves towards red fruits (think raspberry and plum), though a hint of dark chocolate remains. Subtly earthy barley and new leather richness.
Finish
Millionaire shortbread topped with flaky sea salt.
