Caisteal Chamuis - Heavily Peated Double Barreled Scotch
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: Opens with a powerful, earthy peat smoke that’s moderately briny and maritime in character, intermingled with the sweetness of vanilla and marshmallows. Behind that, we find lemon-lime citrus, charred oak, and a faint floral note.
Palate: The earthy peat smoke from the nose becomes more ashy on the palate. Creamy, saccharine sweet vanilla dances with brine, lemon-lime, charred oak, and faint notes of black pepper and heather.
Finish: Long, sweet, and ever so slightly drying. More ashy smoke, brine, vanilla, lemon-lime, charred oak, pepper, and heather.
