Pale Single Single has a new outfit - the same sherry-matured soul, wrapped in a fresh, updated look.

Expert's description

Michel Couvreur New Version Pale Single Single is a Malt Whisky matured in fresh sherry casks and bottled at 45 percent.

The whisky is, like the original Pale Single Single, matured via the house's fresh filling method and bottled in a release of 1,000 bottles. This version comes with an updated bottle design, while the whisky itself retains the pale, elegant style the house is known for.

Pale Single Single is one of the names that best shows Michel Couvreur's flair for the distinctive - a whisky that insists on its own style, matured on fresh sherry casks using the house's fresh filling method, now presented in a new bottle design.
