A late 2016 release from the Wolfburn distillery, matured in a combination of casks - 40% of this whisky was aged in second-fill quarter casks, 40% in first-fill ex-bourbon barrels and 20% in first-fill Oloroso Sherry hogsheads. An exciting release from the distillery.
Almonds and pecans, with a wave of sweet, sticky Sherry notes.
Raisins, currants, more mixed nuts and fresh barley.
Lingering Sherried spice on the finish.
£4.58 - £44.95
Papaya, and mango on nose, then sherry too. a medium finish and always controlled... mouthfeel doesnt have the oil, as you'd expect fron young whisky but this is FABULOUS>>> FABULOUS. struth
Surprising aromas, length of mouth, magnificent.
Nosing: Sherry, salinity, wooden, nutty vibes. Pecan and almond especially. Crisp cracker like a Ritz. Taste: again crisp cracker (must be the barley) oaky bitterness in the front, dried cherries, fruit cake type dried fruits and bread. Finish is oaky bitter, more of the bitter dried fruits, and a bit waxy walnut type mouthfeel. A good intro to scotch and maybe a damn fine dram
I was looking forward to try this out and as soon as it was availible nearby, I picked up a bottle. Nose - honey, sweet, ripe grapes, cherry, bubble gum and alcohol. Taste - Strong spirit, fresh oak, oaky bitterness, a touch of honey. Finish - Bitter oak, dark honey, oily mouthfeel, taste of metal, iron, medium/short finish. it is definitely interesting but at the same time it is also obvious that it is young. It benefits from air A LOT. Once the bottle was 2/3, I left it sitting (cork on) for a week and then returned, comparing with the same bunch of whiskies as before and it was a lot better than before. Would be nice to see Wolfburn's offerings after 5-6 years. At the time they're doing everything right, the physics are holding them back but in few years this could e very good. would be nice to taste a bit more sherry in the actual taste and finish not just nose. And the price is too high, because at the moment it can't compete in the market.
Incredibly smooth for such a young whisky, don't know how they do it but it works for me.
