The Lakes Whiskymaker's Reserve series returns for a sixth edition! No.6 is matured in a combination of Spanish and American oak casks seasoned with oloroso, Pedro Ximénez sherry, and red wine. This release places more of a focus on accentuating notes of wood spice than previous releases, but that's not to say there isn't a generous helping of juicy red fruit notes to be found in this English single malt.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Juicy winey red fruit, plump raisins, and sticky dates, as well as a tart, hibiscus-like floral undertone.
Smooth and buttery oak, more red fruit, alongside raisins, sultanas, and sticky notes of runny honey.
A fragrant incense note, with lingering drying oak spice.

Superb, definitely an amazing one after No.4, excited to see how the next one will taste like.
