The English Whisky 12YO Gentle Peated Sherry Hogshead.

THE VIDEO

I haven’t spoken a lot about English whisky, not because I dislike it, quite the opposite. There are just so many places to be occupied by in the world of whisky. Anyway, This release from The English Distillery has been occupying my mind for quite a while.

Gently Peated, although peated to 44.6PPM, fully matured in ex-sherry hogsheads and bottled at just under 12 years old, this is a proper killer of some big, classic bottles, for pretty much the same price. It is a small batch release, so it isn’t going to be around forever, but this is easily the best English whisky I’ve tried in what is admittedly a long time.

Lots of sweet, sticky, sherry, cigar smoke, dying BBQ, beach fire embers, Nan’s Sunday desserts, a kids sweet shop and everything else in between. A truly wonderful bottle of single malt whisky.

Springbank 15YO

https://youtu.be/PvBE1hE6AE8

There isn’t much to really say about something as classic as this, is there? Well, this is the first bottle of Springbank 15 year old that I’ve ever owned, thanks in part to Andy and our little bottle splits! He wasn’t a fan of this, so I’ve safely taken it off his hands.

Matured in what I assume is mostly sherry, perhaps with a splash of ex-bourbon cask in there as well. It’s somewhat if the classic Springbank profile: chocolate, dates, plums, a little touch of sherry and then some of those funkier more industrial notes pulling through towards the end of the profile.

What I am looking for are recommendations to alternatives to this bottle. I’ll no doubt finish this quite soon as I’m really enjoying it – but apart from the usual comparison of Benromach, what else is there that gets lose to this very famous profile?
