Discover The Spirits Room x Isle of Raasay Single Cask Whisky
Crafted in collaboration with Scotland’s esteemed Isle of Raasay Distillery, this exceptional single cask whisky redefines premium craftsmanship. Distilled from 100% Scottish barley and lightly peated for a balanced smokiness, this expression undergoes a unique maturation journey: three years in bourbon barrels followed by eight months in rare ex-Oloroso quarter casks. This innovative process enhances oak influence, unlocking rich sherry notes and delivering a whisky that defies its youth—complex, refined, and ready to impress even seasoned connoisseurs.
Why This Whisky Stands Out:
– First-Ever Single Cask Bottling: A pioneering release from Isle of Raasay Distillery, celebrated for its innovative spirit and commitment to quality.
– Dual Maturation Magic: Bourbon barrels lay the foundation before sherry-soaked oak elevates flavors, creating a harmonious blend of sweetness and spice.
– Exceptional Complexity: Despite its relatively short aging period, this whisky achieves remarkable depth through meticulous cask management—perfect for those seeking bold yet approachable Scotch.
Tasting Notes:
– Nose: Layers of rich toffee, cinnamon-spiced cola, glacé cherry sweetness, and mossy earthiness mingle with subtle smoky cocoa and citrus zest.
– Palate: Begins with velvety brown sugar before evolving into clootie dumpling warmth, orange citrus brightness, and a spicy kick reminiscent of chili-infused honey.
– Finish: Lingering heat meets toffee-smooth barley sweetness, accented by dewy heather and a saline biltong smoke that lingers invitingly.
Perfect For: Gift-giving enthusiasts seeking a rare Scotch experience, collectors exploring single cask whiskies, or anyone who appreciates bold flavor profiles with a touch of adventure. At 59.7% ABV, this whisky rewards both neat sipping and creative cocktail experimentation.
Elevate your whisky collection with this limited-edition bottling—a testament to Scotland’s distilling heritage reimagined for modern palates.
