Speyside, The Whisky Cellar, 750 ml
| Producer: | The Whisky Cellar |
| Origin: | United Kingdom / Highland-Speyside |
Description
This is a 10-year-old distillation from the Miltonduff distillery that was independently bottled by The Whisky Cellar. Founder Keith Bonnington claims that this is his biggest "sherry bomb" of the series. It was bottled from two Oloroso Sherry quarter casks. The smaller casks develop particularly rich, dark flavours, ideal for lovers of this style. The nose reveals aromas of dark treacle toffee, blackberry jam, cloves and cinnamon. The palate reveals dark chocolate with crystallised ginger, dried sultanas and cranberries, cloves, and Five Spice flavours. Sweet buckwheat honey, toasted oak and tart dark chocolate accompany the finish.

Highland-Speyside
Speyside: Das Herz der Whisky-Kultur
Geografisch gesehen ist die Speyside ein kleiner, nordöstlich gelegener Teilbereich der Highlands. Doch das Hügelland zwischen den Städten Inverness und Aberdeen, durch welches das Flüsschen Spy fliesst, das der Region ihren Namen gibt, ist das Herz und der Nabel der schottischen Whisky-Herstellung und Single Malt-Kultur. Nicht weniger als 50 der insgesamt 108 schottischen Destillerien sind hier beheimatet. Die Speyside-Malts bestechen mit ihrer Komplexität und Eleganz.
