Decadent Drinks April Release – Scotch & English Whisky News


Whiskyland Chapter Thirteen Imperial 26 years old
A single refill barrel of Imperial 1998 bottled at natural cask strength of 44.4% after 26 years of age. This is on the lighter side, but is full of classical Imperial characteristics of waxes, honeys, white flowers and citrus fruit. A delicate and highly detailed whisky that demands a large dram and proper nosing glass and plenty of time and relaxation.
Decadent Drams Miltonduff 22 years old
Another multi-vintage, small batch bottling and probably one of our most ambitious attempts at this practice thus far. A 2002 2nd fill barrel of Miltonduff, married with a 1991 refill hoghsead. The result is wonderfully rich, complex, fruity, honeyed and waxy example with a lot of clear influence of time, but also a freshness from the younger component that builds wonderful complexity and depth into the final dram. We’re really happy with this one.
Decadent Drams Spirit Of Yorkshire 6 years old
A single 2nd fill, ex-Islay barrel of Spirit Of Yorkshire single malt. Distilled in 2018, aged for 6 years and bottled at the slightly reduced strength of 57.1%, this is the first example of Spirit Of Yorkshire single malt that features more than a whiff of peat smoke about it. It’s rich, creamy, full of natural cereal character and balanced by beautiful coastal and gentle smoke inflections.
Decadent Drams Inchmurrin 12 years old
Quite simply, a luscious single 2nd fill barrel of Inchmurrin 2012. Exuberantly fruity and highly exotic – the kind of profile that’s hard to find these days, and utterly beguiling. For us this is great value whisky! We bottled it with very slight reduction to help elevate that luscious fruit character a wee touch.
