Easy Sipper North British Single Grain Scotch Whisky, 11 years 2011
Lowlands, The Whisky Cellar, 700 ml
| Producer: | The Whisky Cellar |
| Origin: | United Kingdom / Lowlands |
Description
Matured in ex-bourbon casks, this whisky from the North British Distillery in Edinburgh presents the light aromas of vanilla, buttercream, toffee, citrus fruits and a hint of coconut typical of single grain. On the palate, it is accessible and soft on the finish. What started as an idea during the lockdown in the UK has become a reality. Founder Keith Bonnington thought: what if we could bottle the sweetest whiskies imaginable to celebrate the physical reunion of friends? The kind of whiskies that everyone enjoys. The kind where you pop the cork and never see it again. With rays of sunlight meandering to distant mountains, rainbows, a hot air balloon and the hope of better times ahead. Because, who doesn't enjoy the sight of a hot air balloon with a good glass of whisky in hand? Easy sipper means easy drinking!

Lowlands
Lowlands: Hochprozentig subtil
Gelten die Inseln und das Hochland mit ihren idyllischen Landschaften als Imageträger der Single Malt-Kultur, so sind die dicht besiedelten Lowlands das industrielle Herz Schottlands. Doch auch hier konnte der Niedergang der Whisky-Kultur in den letzten Jahren gestoppt werden. Rund ein halbes Dutzend Destillerien, die sich grösstenteils in den nördlichen Lowlands unweit der Metropolen Glasgow und Edinburgh befinden, sind heute wieder tätig und produzieren mehrheitlich leichte und sehr ausgewogene Brände.
