The Lakes Whiskymaker’s Editions - Colheita
This single malt was the first to join The Lakes Whiskymaker’s Editions series! It's called Colheita (pronounced 'col-yate-a'), which means 'harvest' in Portuguese, and is also a type of Port. You can probably see where this is going – alongside a small proportion of bourbon barrels, casks which previously held Colheita Port have been used to mature this single malt. Something a little different from the sherry fans over at The Lakes!
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Lots of red fruit, with spiced plum, forest berries and oily orange peel.
Palate
More of those plums on the palate, leading into dried fruit, fig and sweet oak spice.
Finish
A creamy finish with a suggestion of vanilla alongside cinnamon.
