“I’ld actually dare call it refreshing, perfectly fit (yet not exclusively) for a summer night on the terrace … An aroma and flavor profile you don’t come across all too often.”
Wim Bontinck
Description
One of two initial releases from The Whisky Work range, King of Trees is a 10-year-old blended malt made with Highland whiskies, and a portion of the whisky was finished in a cask made from native Scottish oak. It doesn't overpower the flavour profile, but does help bring out some bright orchard fruit freshness and bright oak notes.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
White grapes, green apples and butterscotch, then sherbet lemons, golden barley and a flicker of nutmeg. There’s a note of Victoria sponge cake with fresh raspberries present too before dried fruit and woody tannins emerge.
Palate
Dark fruit compote, dried citrus peels and a helping of barley sugar at first, with a little vanilla, a hint of balancing wood spice and a touch of creamy nuttiness.
Finish
Slightly drying, a little spicy and a lingering syrupy sweet.
