2006 Adelphi Breath Of Speyside 11 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Notes from Adelphi… A single cask from an undisclosed distillery. Drawn from a refill ex-Sherry cask, a deep amber/polished mahogany colour, with good beading. Mellow nose feel, not as dry as its predecessor. Bruised apple, tinned pear, burnt caramel – toffee apple? Oloroso sherry, sweet tobacco, soft leather. Develops into vanilla toffee (Werther’s Originals; Chocolate Eclairs) with a drop of water. A sweet, burnt toffee taste, then immediately bitter saccharine. Water introduces chocolate and cocoa powder, reduces the other tastes and gives a lightly mentholic aftertaste. 56.8% Alc./Vol.
Non chill filtered. 631 bottles. Extremely limited stocks.
