Sherry Cask Blend from William Cadenhead – Scotch Whisky News

The latest Sherry Cask Blend from William Cadenhead a dram that should be enjoyed slowly, every sip is a taste of time.

BLENDED USING THE FOLLOWING WHISKIES: added to the previous including Invergordon, Girvan, Benrinnes, Miltonduff

This blended whisky is matured in a sherry solera system whereby we will only ever bottle half of the batting before topping up the casks.

limited stocks at this time.

NOSE: Very smooth nose with a delightful rounded sweet sherry note with some coca and vanilla pod. Fresh churned toffee sweets and then a little warming spice notes, the nose is much older than the age statement.

PALATE: Smooth and elegant fruits are the first thing you will notice with this dram, the flavours just go on and on. Some red berries as one would expect with a rich 55% milk chocolate just to add more depth. The taste keeps going with a delicate truffle note and red berries come back in for one last blast of richness on the mid palate.

FINISH: Long sweet notes cling to the side of the palate then you get this stunning effect of warm fruit cake and a little sweet sherry and coca mingling with some sweet spices. dare we say this is a must have dram for the price you won’t find better, the age statement is 12 years the palate is 24+ years in our humble opinion.

Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 295: Mortlach 15 Year Old Six Kingdoms – Scotch Whisky News

Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 295: Mortlach 15 Year Old Six Kingdoms

Mark Dermul, Belgian whisky vlogger, tries the final Game of Thrones malt. The Mortlach Six Kingdoms is the final release in the (in)famous Game of Thrones series, that consists of 9 single malts and three Johnnie Walker blends. The so-called whisky aficionados give this one much grief and spit it out as yet another marketing stunt to promote the second batch of the GOT malts (the first was scooped up by collectors and thus Diageo’s strategy to reach a new and younger drinking audience failed). It was finished on ex-bourbon casks, meaning they ‘softened it up’ a bit for a broader audience. I am pleasantly surprised by both price tag and ABV, but the real question of course is: is it any good?
