Description

From the Gulliver's 47 range comes an unpeated English single malt produced at the Cotswolds Distillery, which has been matured in a shaved, toasted and re-charred ex-red wine cask (or "STR cask", if you want to use the fancy term). This style of cask (pioneered by the late, great Jim Swan) has been gaining popularity among whisky producers across the lands, and it's not hard to see why from bottlings like this. Lots of caramelised fruit and oaky spices to tuck into, making this an excellent postprandial whisky.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

Honeycomb, redcurrant, orange peel, gingersnaps and barley.

Palate

Butterscotch, caramelised dates, a slow build of cinnamon and more ginger, a touch of milk chocolate.

Finish

Lingering clove and black pepper, mellowed by sultana and poached pear.
