Another month, another Pour and Sip subscription box drop!
This month, we received the following whiskies:
Lindores Abbey Single Cask
This whisky was distilled in May 2018 entirely from Fife barley, which went through a very lengthy fermentation of 119 hours, and was filled into the distillery’s 386th cask, an ex-bourbon barrel from Kentucky’s Old Forester. It rested there until June 2022 when it was drawn from the cask, with a yield of just 246 bottles. The long fermentation, slow distillation, and maturation combined make for a sweet, fruit-forward, and gently creamy spirit.
Lochlea "Our Barley"
Sitting alongside the limited edition releases from Lochlea, this flagship ongoing core release, Our Barley, is dubbed ‘John Campbell’s masterpiece’, matured in a combination of ex-bourbon, ex-sherry, and STR (shaved, toasted, and re-charred) casks.
Glencadam 13 Years Old 2008 Réserve De Sauternes
This is a limited-edition wine cask-finished single malt from the Highland distillery, initially matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks before being moved to casks which previously held Sauternes wine.
Smokehead Rum Rebel
Released for International Rum Day in 2020, Rum Rebel is smokey Islay whisky which is finished in ex-Caribbean rum casks.
Nikka Coffey Malt Whisky
Produced entirely from malted barley at Nikka’s Miyagikyo distillery, Coffey Malt was never meant to be a permanent release, but was added to the core range in 2014 thanks to its popularity
I want these whiskies!
