Penderyn The Headliner

Ninth in the Penderyn Icons of Wales series, this one is named 'The Headliner' after David Llyod George (1863-1945), the only Welsh Prime Minister and creator of the Immature Spirits Act 1915, which specified whisky must be matured for a minimum of three years. This likely annoyed a lot of distilleries at the time, but is said to have helped shape the image of whisky as a premium product. This particular whisky was matured in Jamaican rum and Port casks, bottled at 46% ABV, non-chill filtered, for plenty of rich berry and spice notes.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose Bursts of fresh cherry and summer berries, with creamy oatcakes, oaken vanilla, and baking spices.

Palate Fruitcake, with drizzles of caramel alongside, drying green oak, and peppery spice.

Finish Dry, with plenty of sweet fruit.

Reviews for Penderyn The Headliner (Icons of Wales)
As christmassy as Quality street!
Bit of the rum on the nose, and those characteristic high tones of penderyn's sweet wine.
Plenty of rum on the mouth, reminiscent of angostura 7 rum. A touch of water mellowing the cloying sickliness of sweet on sweet.
A lingering sweet toffee cararmel to finish. Not oily at all.
Well balanced overall but too sweet for me. Good but not my bag.

Stunning
Penderyn is rapidly becoming my favourite non Scottish Single Malt Distillery. The headliner is a stunning edition in the line up.
