High. 28-year-old single-cask Laphroaig bottlings are rare, and with only 228 bottles from The Coopers Choice, this is one of the rarest releases in this whole delivery.
Did you know?
Only a small share of Laphroaig's production reaches 28 years of maturation, since the distillery's powerful peat smoke often peaks earlier than in milder whisky styles.

Big Peat 26 years old Vintage 1992 Series No 2 Platinum Edition DL Blended Islay Malt Whisky 70 cl 51.5%

Item no.: 22227865468-300

The second chapter. Same 1992 vintage, one year longer in wood and a touch less strength. The Platinum Edition is the middle of the three — and the one where the balance between smoke and maturity sits closest.
The expert's description
Big Peat 26 years Vintage 1992 Platinum Edition is an Islay Blended Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at 51.5 % cask strength.
The whiskies were distilled in 1992 and bottled in 2018 in an outturn of 3,000 bottles. The release is neither chill filtered nor coloured.
The Platinum Edition is the second in Douglas Laing's Vintage Series, between the Gold Edition at 25 years and The Black Edition at 27 years. All three are assembled from Islay's most sought after single malts of the same vintage.
Tasting notes
Nose
Dry ash, seaweed and salted liquorice. Beneath the smoke hide dried apricots, honey and a warm nuttiness.
Palate
Rich and broad with peat smoke, dark caramel and roasted malt. There is a mineral salt edge and a hint of leather that only comes with age.
Finish
Very long with dry smoke, cocoa and a sweet note that holds on for some time.

An Cnoc 18 years old Single Highland Malt Whisky 70 cl 46%

Item no.: 22227865470-100123

The distillery is called Knockdhu. The whisky is called anCnoc. The reason is mundane, another distillery had a name too close to it, but the upshot is that one of the Highlands most quietly capable distilleries has spent decades living under a borrowed name.
The Expert's Description
anCnoc 18 Years Old is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in second fill Oloroso sherry casks and second fill bourbon casks, bottled at 46%. That both cask types are second fill is a deliberate choice: the wood gives less, but it gives it more slowly, and over 18 years the result is balanced rather than forceful.
The spirit from Knockdhu is bright, floral and lightly waxy, a style easily drowned by aggressive casks. Using second fill wood leaves room for the distillate's own character throughout the maturation. That is why the 18 year old does not taste markedly darker than the 12, it tastes deeper.
Knockdhu was founded in 1894 by John Morrison, who had bought the Knock Estate from the Duke of Fife two years earlier. The distillery stands near Knock Hill in Banffshire and is officially in the Highland region, though it is often mislabelled as a Speyside. It closed in 1983, was bought by Inver House Distillers in 1988, and production resumed in February 1989.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Honey, lemon peel and pale flowers first, very much the house signature. Behind them a light waxy note, candied orange and a trace of dried apricot from the sherry wood. Clean and precise with nothing heavy about it.
Palate
Soft opening with honey and malt, then spice and a drier orange note. There is a fine waxy texture carrying the flavour well, and the 46% gives body without taking over. The sherry sits underneath as depth rather than as fruit.
Finish
Long and clean. Honey, dried fruit and a lightly spiced oak dryness that lets go slowly with no bitterness.

Did You Know?
The argument over the name concerned Knockando, a Speyside distillery owned by a far larger group. The two names were close enough that Knockdhu had to find an alternative, and from 1993 the whisky was sold as anCnoc, Gaelic for the hill. Independent bottlers, however, still happily use the original name on their labels.

Stauning KAOS September 2018 Dansk Single Malt Whisky 47,1%

Item no.: 22227865400-8999

September 2018 – and Stauning sends out another KAOS edition. This time slightly more spiced than the June edition, with a more pronounced oak note.
Expert description
Stauning KAOS September 2018 is a Danish Single Malt Whisky bottled at 47.1% in Stauning's KAOS series. A blend of malted grain types gives the characteristic complexity, and each batch reflects the specific composition from this particular bottling. Non-chill filtered with natural colour.
KAOS September 2018 differs from the June edition of the same year with a slightly higher ABV and a bit more oak and spice. Stauning uses each batch as an opportunity to experiment with grain composition and maturation time.
Tasting notes
Nose
Peach and apricot with slightly more oak than earlier editions. Honey and light blossom in the background.
Palate
Creamy malt core with fruit sweetness. Slightly more structure and spice than the June edition. Elegant.

Ardor Danish Oak Nyborg Distillery batch 167 Organic Single Malt Danish Whisky 46%

Item no.: 22227865446-10163

The oak trees at Erholm Estate in Funen have been standing for a long time. Two hundred years ago the plan was for them to become warships. Instead they became whisky casks – which is a better idea.
Expert description
Ardor Danish Oak Batch 167 is an organic Danish Single Malt Whisky bottled at 46% at 5 years of age. Distilled by Isle of Fionia / Nyborg Distillery in Nyborg, Funen, and matured in casks made from oak trees at Erholm Estate in Funen – part of the historic Danish "fleet oak" planting. The casks were used as a "boost": the whisky spent a short period on these Danish oak barriques from March 2018 to October 2018 to absorb the powerful tannins and characteristic bitterness of young Danish oak. 954 bottles produced.
Tasting notes
Nose
Beautifully fruity with pears and apricots as the main elements. Hazelnuts and Virginia tobacco lay a nutty, aromatic base, and the fresh oak tannin gives a sharp, bright note.
Palate
Gentle and sweet at 46% with the fruitiness carried from the nose. The oak tannins from the Danish barriques are present as a fresh, lightly astringent frame around the sweet fruit core. A surprisingly elegant balance.
Finish
Medium with lingering pear and apricot sweetness, and a dry oak bitterness in the tail of the close.

Stauning Private Cask Whisky.dk 6 years old 2010/2017 Danish Peated Single Malt Whisky 60,8%

Item no.: 22227865400-8451

Six years in cask. Peated single malt at cask strength 60.8%. ROMMER is Whisky.dk's Private Cask from Stauning – one barrel, bottled in 2017, impossible to replicate.
Expert description
Stauning Private Cask ROMMER Whisky.dk 6 Year 2010/2017 is a Danish Peated Single Malt Whisky bottled at cask strength 60.8%. ROMMER is the name given to this specific Private Cask, owned and matured by Whisky.dk for six years from 2010 to 2017. The peated style draws on Stauning's West Jutland peat, delivering a green and herbal smoke character. Six years brings more integration and depth than younger releases – the smoke is well-integrated with oak sweetness and a complexity that shorter maturations rarely achieve. At 60.8%, this is a powerful, undiluted version of Stauning's peated style.
Tasting notes
Nose
Well-integrated smoke with a light herbal edge. Vanilla, gentle citrus and oak sweetness grow beneath the smoke.
Palate
Powerful and complex. Smoke, spices and a sweetness of vanilla and light caramel. Citrus fruit and pepper spice lurk in the background.
Finish
Long and warming with smoke and oak persisting. A trace of salt at the very end.

Item no.: 22227865400-8450

A Private Cask is one cask, one decision and one chance. Whisky.dk chose malted rye whisky from Stauning – and five years later this came out of the barrel at cask strength 57.5%.
Expert description
Stauning Private Cask Whisky.dk 5 Year 2011/2017 is a Danish Malted Rye Whisky bottled at cask strength 57.5%. This Private Cask was commissioned and owned by Whisky.dk – a single cask from Stauning's distillery, selected, matured and bottled exclusively for our shelves. Malted rye differs from Stauning's standard rye by using 100% malted rye grain, resulting in a softer, sweeter and more complex profile with rye's characteristic spiced fruitiness. Distilled in 2011 and bottled five years later in 2017, this is a unique bottle that cannot be replicated.
Tasting notes
Nose
Spiced rye, green fruit and vanilla. A hint of cardamom and honey beneath the characteristic rye edge.
Palate
Full-bodied and spiced with rye bread, gentle sweetness and dark fruit. Pepper notes arrive mid-palate and persist.
Finish

Stauning Rye 2018 November Dansk Rug Whisky 50%

Item no.: 22227865400-2018

Stauning Rye 2018 is the 17th edition of Stauning's malted rye whisky – a series that has grown from ambitious experiments to one of the most acclaimed rye expressions in Europe.
Expert description
Stauning Rye 2018 November is a Danish Rye Whisky bottled at 50% and distilled in 2015. Released November 2018 as the 17th edition in the Rye series. The whisky is made from 100% Danish rye malt, floor-malted in-house at Stauning and distilled in copper pot stills. 4,800 bottles produced. Non-chill filtered with natural colour.
Stauning Rye represents the best from the Jutland rye fields. With a spicy and fruity profile – and no smoke – it is a markedly different expression from Stauning's SMOKE and KAOS series. The November 2018 edition is characterised by rye at its most complex.
Tasting notes
Nose
Spiced rye with dried fruit, orange peel and a touch of ginger. A malt-rich depth with hints of vanilla and nut.
Palate
Full and spicy. Rye bread, dark fruit and light pepper. Good structure without being heavy.

Glen Keith 1995/2013 Part Des Anges 17 year old Single Speyside Malt Whisky 55,5%

Item no.: B22227865438-209

The series is called Closed Distilleries, and when the cask was selected in 2013 the name fitted precisely. Glen Keith had stood still since 1999, and a French bottling house got hold of a bourbon cask from 1995. It yielded 175 bottles.
The expert's description
Glen Keith 1995/2013 Part des Anges 17 Year Old is a Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in a bourbon cask and bottled at cask strength 55.5%.
The cask was filled in 1995 and emptied in 2013 after 17 years. The bottling gave 175 bottles, non-chill filtered and with no added colour, and the whisky formed part of the Closed Distilleries series — Part des Anges' selection of whisky from distilleries that were silent or shut. The irony is that Glen Keith was started up again in 2013, the very year the bottle appeared.
Part des Anges is a French bottling house founded in 2005 by Thierry Richard and Laurent Buob. They have specialised in whisky from distilleries without a future, which has produced a set of bottles that now works rather like an archive of a period when Scotch whisky was shutting down instead of building.
Tasting notes
Nose
Concentrated and bright. Pineapple, yellow melon and vanilla pod, with a sharp orange peel on top. A cask that has had plenty of time without taking over.
Palate
Powerful and oily without being heavy. Tropical fruit, coconut and honey, with a firm peppery middle from the 55.5%. The malt sits clearly beneath it all.
Finish
Very long. Vanilla, pineapple and white pepper drying slowly into a note of pale oak.

During the fourteen years Glen Keith stood silent, parts were stripped from the plant to keep other distilleries running. When the decision came to reopen, there was not much left to start from — the new distillery was in practice built inside the old walls.

133 ppm in a glass that's still only five years old. Octomore 9:3 is raw, young power, where the peat hasn't had time to hide anywhere.
Expert description
Octomore 9:3 is a super-peated Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky from Bruichladdich, matured for 5 years and bottled at 62.9%.
This release is peated to 133 ppm and forms part of the ninth Octomore series, a limited release that builds on the house's philosophy of pushing how peated a single malt can become without losing its balance.
With just five years of maturation and a high natural cask strength, 9:3 comes across as raw and direct, a concentrated expression of Octomore's extreme style.
Tasting notes
Nose
Intense, earthy peat with a touch of citrus and a light honeyed sweetness beneath the smoke.

Powerful and direct with waves of peat, black pepper and a warm, alcohol-driven intensity.

Highland Park HPAS 13 year old Single Orkney Malt Whisky 59,1%

Item no.: B22227865388-10401

The Highland Park Appreciation Society is not a club you wander into by chance. Its members have followed the distillery for years, and in 2016 they were allowed to point at one single cask in the warehouses at Kirkwall. They chose a sherry butt filled in 2003. It gave 576 bottles, and then the cask was empty.
The expert's description
Highland Park HPAS 13 Year Old Single Orkney Malt Whisky 59.1% is a Single Orkney Malt Whisky drawn from one refill sherry butt, cask #2115, bottled undiluted at its cask strength of 59.1%.
HPAS stands for the Highland Park Appreciation Society, the society for the distillery's most committed followers. The bottling belongs to Highland Park's Single Cask Series, where one cask is emptied and sold as it stands, and this particular cask was picked for the society. The spirit went into wood in 2003 and into glass in 2016.
A butt is among the largest casks in Scottish maturation at around 500 litres, and a refill cask has held whisky before. It gives up colour and wood more slowly, so after thirteen years the distillery character still leads, with the dried fruit of sherry framing it rather than covering it. The cask yielded 576 bottles.
Cask strength makes this a dense dram. Everything the wood handed over sits in the glass without a drop of water, and the smoke from Highland Park's own peated malt has far more room than in the core range.
Tasting notes
Nose
Raisins, dark orange marmalade and toasted malt. Below sits a dry, sooty peat smoke and a note of leather. The alcohol prickles for the first few seconds and settles after a couple of minutes in the glass.
Palate
Thick and oily. Dates, dark chocolate and clove, then a clear edge of pepper and a smoke that tastes of hearth ash rather than tar.
Finish
Long and warm. The dried fruit of the sherry hangs on, the spice tightens, and a dry, salty note closes the whole thing.

The rise the distillery stands on is called High Park, and it is linked to Magnus Eunson, a church officer who by local account distilled illicitly at night and hid his casks beneath the pulpit. A licence for the site came only much later.

Macallan Quest was made for those who move. A Travel Retail exclusive designed for the airport shop, but with enough substance to stand up at home. Now discontinued — but still to be found.
Expert description
Macallan Quest is a discontinued Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky with no age statement (NAS), bottled at 40%. Quest was launched in 2018 as a replacement for the 1824 Collection in the Travel Retail segment and is matured in four cask types: ex-bourbon casks, sherry seasoned European oak casks, sherry seasoned American oak casks and hogsheads. The combination creates an expression with fruity freshness and lightly spiced sweetness — accessible and well balanced.
As a NAS whisky, Quest is designed for consistency rather than vintage depth. It is a whisky that works without demanding anything of the drinker.

Soft and welcoming with ripe mandarin and apricot. Vanilla sugar, toasted oak and a light spicy hint in the background.

Bladnoch was producing in that period under Bell's and United Distillers, and the spirit is made in the pale, classic Lowland style. After 1993 the distillery stood idle for long stretches, which has left the 1980s vintages thin on the ground.
Tasting notes
Nose
Clean and grainy with hay, apple blossom and a pale citrus note.
Palate
Soft, dry and light. Malt, green fruit and a fine waxy texture typical of the period.
Finish
Medium and dry with grain and a faint suggestion of oak.

Hedonism The Muse Compass Box Blended Grain Scotch Whisky 53,3%

Item no.: 22227865475-8268

Grain whisky is almost always tucked away inside blends where nobody notices it. Hedonism is the bottle where John Glaser put it up front and asked people to taste it properly.
Expert description
Compass Box Hedonism The Muse is a Blended Grain Scotch Whisky bottled at 53.3% without chill filtration and without added colouring.
Hedonism was the first commercial blended grain whisky when Compass Box launched it in 2000, and The Muse is the house bottling at cask strength. Grain whisky is distilled in a column still rather than a pot still and is usually used as a soft backbone in blends. Given long maturation in good American oak it instead develops a creamy, coconut-like sweetness no malt whisky can produce. At 53.3% it stands far more powerfully than the standard Hedonism.
Tasting notes
Nose
Vanilla pod, coconut and crème brûlée. Behind them sit sugared popcorn, pale caramel and a trace of wood shavings.
Palate
Velvety and sweet. Vanilla, coconut milk, white chocolate and pale syrup, with a warm spiced note that comes from the strength rather than the oak. The texture is thick without turning cloying.
Finish
Long and creamy, with vanilla, coconut and a dry oak note slowly drying out the sweetness.

When Hedonism arrived in 2000, blended grain barely existed as something you sold on its own. Compass Box essentially built the category from scratch, and today several large houses have followed with grain bottlings of their own.

Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey 450 cl 40% NEW VERSION

Item no.: 22227865463-8260

Irish whiskey named after the man who electrified an entire town.
Expert description
Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey is the brand's classic core expression, here in a large 450 cl bottle, bottled at 40%. The Tullamore distillery was founded in 1829 by Michael Molloy. After his death, his nephew Bernard Daly took over management and hired a 15-year-old stable boy named Daniel Edmund Williams as general manager. Williams eventually came to own the distillery and helped modernise the entire town of Tullamore — introducing electricity in 1893, the town's first telephone line, and its first motorised vehicle. After his death, his initials, D.E.W., became a permanent part of the brand name.
Tasting notes
Nose
The nose is light with grain, vanilla and a hint of fruit.
Palate
The palate is soft and sweet with grain, honey and light spice.

Item no.: B22227865400-10

It started with seven amateurs in a slaughterhouse building. On 30 June 2012 Stauning released its first whisky – and this bottle is one of the 728 examples.
Expert description
Stauning 1st Edition Traditional 2009/2012 is a Danish Single Malt Whisky bottled at 63.3% and matured for 3 years. Distilled in 2009 and released on 30 June 2012. Only 728 bottles. It is the very first Stauning whisky ever released to the market – a historic bottle in Danish whisky history.
Stauning Whisky opened in 2005 in an old slaughterhouse building in Skjern, and the early years were marked by passion, experimentation and almost no resources. 1st Edition is an expression of all that: raw, powerful and with a historical significance that transcends any tasting note.
Tasting notes
Nose
Powerful and complex. Malt, dried fruit, honey and a touch of oak. The 63.3% is present but approachable with a little water.
Palate
Intense malt and fruit notes with oak spice and a warm, full-bodied core. Strong but well-balanced for its ABV.

Hazelburn 10 year old Marsala Cask Denmark Campbeltown Malt Whisky 58,8%

Item no.: 22227865434-10155

Hazelburn is Springbank's quiet third voice - no smoke, triple distilled, and a softness that surprises those who only know the distillery's other two styles. This release was bottled in a small number, exclusively for the Danish market.
Expert Description
Hazelburn 10 Year Old Marsala Cask Denmark is a Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled at Springbank, finished in Marsala casks and bottled at 58.8%.
Hazelburn is one of the three styles produced at Springbank Distillery, standing apart by being triple distilled and entirely unpeated - an unusual combination in Campbeltown that gives a lighter, more refined whisky than its smoky siblings. This 10 year old was distilled in June 2007 and bottled in May 2018, after which a Marsala cask finish added sweetness and body that pairs well with Hazelburn's fresh core character. Only 258 bottles were released for the Danish market via Juuls Vinhandel.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Light caramel and strawberry jam meet almost overripe citrus, patisserie pastry and a touch of vanilla.
Palate
Vanilla and cask notes blend with red berries in a creamy, almost viscous style that pairs beautifully with the high strength.
Finish
Soft and round, with a lingering sweetness of berries and pastry that slowly gives way to a dry, lightly spiced close.

STAUNING PEATED 7th Edition 2012/2018 Dansk Single Malt Whisky 48,4%

Item no.: 22227865400-9000

Stauning PEATED is the distillery's smoky flagship in an age that shows what Danish peated malt can become with six years in cask.
Expert description
Stauning PEATED 7th Edition 2012/2018 is a Danish Single Malt Whisky bottled at 48.4% and matured for a minimum of 6 years. Distilled in 2012 and released in 2018. 2,293 bottles produced. Made from peated barley malt, floor-malted in-house at Stauning and double distilled in copper pot stills. Non-chill filtered with natural colour.
The PEATED series is Stauning's answer to classic smoky whisky – but with a Danish identity. This is not Islay imitation: the smoke is integrated, balanced and supported by Danish grain's sweetness. The 7th edition is one of the most mature in the series' early chapter.
Tasting notes
Nose
Peat smoke and malt with a little honey, citrus and dried fruit behind. Six years in cask gives a roundness the younger editions lack.
Palate
Smoky and malt-rich. Light fruit and gentle pepper with a soft, rounded core. Balanced and elegant for a peated whisky.

The Brisbane by Adelphi 5 years old Fusion of Australian and Scotch Malt Whisky 70 cl 57,5%

Item no.: 22227865449-8076

Two continents, one glass. Australian malt meets Scotch heritage in a bottling that challenges the very definition of whisky.
Expert description
The Brisbane by Adelphi is a 5 year old fusion of Australian and Scotch malt whisky, bottled at cask strength at 57.5% ABV by the independent Scottish bottler Adelphi.
A "fusion whisky" here means that whisky distilled in Australia has been blended with Scotch malt whisky from Glen Garioch and Glen Grant, two prominent Highland and Speyside distilleries, creating a bottling that bridges two whisky worlds on opposite sides of the globe.
Only 925 bottles of this fusion were produced, with no added colouring and no chill filtration, allowing the raw interplay between the Australian and Scotch components to come through in full.
Adelphi Distillery was founded in 1826 by the River Clyde in Glasgow, closed in the early 1900s, but was revived in 1993 as an independent bottler when a grandson of a former owner brought back the name with a philosophy of bottling only the very best casks.
Tasting notes
Nose
Tropical fruit and eucalyptus from the Australian component meet dry Highland malt and a touch of hay.
Palate
Bold and cask-strength driven, with honey, toasted nuts and an exotic fruit sweetness unusual for Scotch whisky.
Finish
Long, warm and spiced, with a final hint of citrus peel and wood.

Ardnamurchan 2017 AD2 Spirit Adelphi 53,6%

Item no.: 22227865364-801

The bottle did not say whisky, and that was deliberate. Scottish law requires three years in cask before the word can be used, and Ardnamurchan had not got there yet. So they called it Spirit and sent it out anyway, so people could follow the distillery from the very beginning.
The Expert's Description
Ardnamurchan 2017 AD2 Spirit is a Highland Single Malt Spirit from Ardnamurchan Distillery, bottled at 53.6% by Adelphi. It is the distillery’s second annual release of young spirit and may not be called whisky, because it has not spent the three years in cask that Scottish law requires.
Ardnamurchan was built by the independent bottler Adelphi on the remote Ardnamurchan peninsula on Scotland’s west coast. There had never been a legal distillery on the peninsula before the site opened in 2014. The distillery makes two styles, one peated and one unpeated, matured in American and Spanish oak.
The run of Spirit releases spans 2016 to 2019, and AD2 is the second in the sequence. The distillery’s first proper Single Malt Whisky arrived in September 2020. The spirit is neither chill filtered nor coloured.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Young and direct. Fresh malted barley first, then pear, green apple and a clear cereal sweetness. A light peat smoke sits beneath it all along with a clean, almost bready note you only meet in spirit that has not had time to be rounded off.
Palate
Powerful and raw in the good sense. Malt and grain fill the middle of the mouth, while the cask’s vanilla has only just begun to report in. There is a peated undercurrent and a peppery warmth, and at 53.6% the texture is oily and full.
Finish
Medium and dry. Grain, malt and a lightly smoky edge that lets go sooner than an older whisky would.

Ardnamurchan draws all its electricity from a hydro generator on the river beside the distillery. The location is so remote that producing its own power was easier than running a supply network out there. The environmental case was there too, but the practicality came first.

Bunnahabhain 18 years old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 70 cl 46.3%

Item no.: 22227865392-8064

It took decades before Bunnahabhain added an 18 Years Old to the core range, and the wait shows in every glass.
Expert's Description
Bunnahabhain 18 Years Old is an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in ex-sherry casks and bottled at 46.3%.
Eighteen years on sherry wood has given the whisky a golden depth and a maturity that builds on the distillery's lighter core style. It's a dram that takes its time unfolding in the glass and rewards whoever gives it the space to do so.
The small batch assembly keeps every bottling at the same high standard, without sacrificing the variation single casks would otherwise bring.
Tasting Notes

Sugared nuts and a greeting from the sea, backed by generous caramel and leathery oak.

Soft sherry tones meet fruit and nuts across a full, round palate.

Stauning Young Rye 2018 is the 16th edition in the series – and the one with the lowest ABV in the early Rye chronology. It is an approachable and floral edition with rye character without too much edge.
Expert description
Stauning Young Rye 2018 February is a Danish Rye Whisky bottled at 43.3% and distilled in 2014. Released February 2018 as the 16th edition in the Rye series. Made from 100% Danish rye malt, floor-malted in-house. 2,541 bottles. Non-chill filtered with natural colour.
The 2014 distillation year marks a point when Stauning was still a small team with a passionate approach to craft. These batches are expressions of the early Stauning – before the expansion and increased production.
Tasting notes
Nose
Floral and lightly fruity with rye bread, honey and light blossom. Softer and more approachable than the stronger Young Rye expressions.
Palate
Malt-sweet and lightly spiced. Rye core, mild pepper and a little citrus. Round and easy to enjoy.

Item no.: 22227865446-5104

Whiskymessen 2018, cask number two. Same fair, different cask, a new character. 62.6% from Ørbæk Brewery.
Expert description
Nyborg Distillery Whiskymessen 2018 (62.6%) is an organic Danish Single Malt Whisky bottled at 62.6% cask strength for the Danish Whisky Fair in 2018. Like the corresponding 64.6% bottling, it was produced during the distillery's Ørbæk era and represents a separate cask with its own flavour character. The two Whiskymessen 2018 bottlings complement each other and offer enthusiasts the opportunity to compare what two casks from the same period and base spirit can produce. A standalone and rare bottling.

Palate
Gentle and approachable at 62.6% with integrated warmth. Fresh apple fruit and light sweetness. A warm finish on the palate.
Finish
Clean and short to medium with fresh grain notes.
