Description: | Limited Edition Single Cask As the lads say, "Our sole aim is to produce and share whiskies that absolutely Firkin delicious." This single malt whisky was distilled at the Caol Ila distillery before being placed in an ex-Marsala Cask and left to mature for 7 years. the peaty smokiness of a classic Caol Ila 2012 with the Muscat grape sweetness of Marsala and mature in a hand-built custom cask which uses a combination of American first fill Bourbon & new French Limousin oak staves with a custom char. This Double Oak cask in combination with the Marsala creates a special flavor profile - the original peat 'full on character' is mellowed and softened over time resulting in a new take on a this classic Islay whisky. Kapow! Smoke! Call the Fire Brigade! A big waft of peat & smoke. You only need to dig a bit for the malt and creamy oak which holds it all together. This has everything. Burning embers, smoky bonfires and a tad of oak and peppery spirit. So chewy and smoky. - The Firkin Whisky Co. |
