SOLERA Batch #3

This exceptional whisky is created in our unique own special way by blending malt whiskies from different distilleries and differing spirit styles. Each batch is Small, bespoke and distinctively different from the last; blended, married, bottled and hand labelled in our own warehouse where you’ll be glad to know, no artificial colouring of chill-filtration takes place.

From our unique custom built solera system in our warehouse. 

Originating in the sherry and port industries, a solera system involves multiple connected barrels. As whisky is drawn from the last barrel the first barrel is topped up. Our Solera is made up of an ex-Fino sherry quarter cask and two ex-Oloroso quarter casks. Whisky flowing through the system will pick up new, deeper, flavours from these casks.

This is the 3rd batch and now we’re seeing the real benefit from time marrying together in the Solera. There in now a rewarding balance of smoke and sherry with any youthful notes now well into the background.

The tasting revealed - Old leather, orange peel, cola cubes, toasted marshmallow and smoked kippers.
