The English 18 Year Old 2006 (cask 001) - 18th Anniversary Release
The English - Cask 001 is an extremely rare English single malt, released to commemorate the English Distillery's founding. In 2006, this whisky was the first of only 29 casks hand-filled by founder James Nelstrop. Not only is it whisky from the inaugural production, but it also marks the first cask produced by a licensed whisky distillery in England in over a century.
Over the last 18 years, this whisky has remained at the distillery, being disturbed just twice, once to be transferred into a single sherry cask and a second time when it was returned to its original American standard barrel. The release is unpeated, and bottled at cask strength (54.2% ABV), non-chill filtered, with no added colour. Just 60 bottles exist, each presented in an exclusive collector's box with a certificate of authenticity.
Tasting Note by The Producer
Nose
Wonderful aromas of vanilla, caramelised sugar, with hints of sandalwood and ginger.
Palate
Sipped neat, the palate gives oodles of caramel and stewed apples; a dash of water brings out more fruit and vanilla custard.
Finish
A long, full-bodied finish with a linger of brown sugar and slight dry wood spice.
