NEW EXCLUSIVE SINGLE CASK:
KORNOG 2016 PEAT & SHERRY
A HIDDEN GEM AMONGST SINGLE MALTS

Our latest exclusive single cask bottling comes from one of the whisky world’s hidden gems, Celtic Whisky Distillerie on the Breton coast. This small producer of French single malt is our co-founder Sukhinder Singh’s favourite distillery in mainland Europe and has a real following by whisky connoisseurs, so it was a natural choice when it came to source whiskies to celebrate his family’s 50th year in the drinks business.

He chose this 2016 Kornog – matured in a single refill Pedro Ximénez sherry butt – for its pronounced fruitiness and old-fashioned peat character, reminiscent of peated Chichibu or old Ardbeg. At six-years-old it’s a deeply complex dram with sweet peat, citrus and orchard fruits on the nose, followed by a palate of Black Forest Gateau, dark chocolate and crunchy red fruit. An excellent example of world whisky and a great choice for fans of Islay single malts.
