A.d. Rattray Cask Orkney 18 yr 46% 750ml Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Description: | Ad Rattray Cask Orkney 18 yr is a limited edition project from the Independent Bottler that captures the spirit of the region, the warmth in the people, and the skill of their craft. Orkney, or the Orkney Islands is located in the very northern part of Scotland. It is home to the most northern Scottish Distillery that embraces the regions Nordic roots. I was told by one of Odins ravens that Ad Rattay got this whisky from that distillery. Although it's not mead, Odins preferred drink, I would think he would enjoy this whiskey very much. Look for subtle notes of peat with green apple and nutmeg, wood spice, sea salt and a hazy smoke. The palate brings toffee, peach and apricot, with a rich velvety texture, sweet background smoke, not the razed village type smoke but the peat type smoke, and a dry nutty finish. It is very complex and balanced whiskey which is worthy to be served in the halls of Valhalla. |
