Caisteal Chamuis - Finished in Bourbon Barrel Blended Scotch Whisky
A classic ‘Island style’ Blended Malt Scotch Whisky, bold and smoky, but with an approachable double cask finish that balances the heavy Island peat notes, offering an easy access into the sometimes challenging world of peated whiskies. This is a characterful whisky, blended from a careful selection of fine Single Malts all distilled on the islands of Scotland and recasked in first-fill bourbon barrels for added depth and a mellow oakspice finish. Originally aged in refill and first-fill American Oak Hogsheads, the individual Malts that make up this whisky were then blended before a final finish in smaller 200 litre fresh Bourbon Barrels. This second period of maturation and marrying of flavour adds further layers of fresh fragrant smoky oak to the original medicinal peaty aromas and a touch of sweetness and heightened vanilla overtones on the pallate.
Nose: Sea breeze, toasted teacake with salted butter, honeyed apple, and a pinch of pepper.
Palate: Caramelised nuts and flaked almonds, charred oak staves, a hint of medicinal smoke.
Finish: Singed barley, crunchy brown sugar, banana fritters.
