Bimber Peated Cask Batch #1 English Single Malt Whisky (2016-2020) 70cl

Bimber Peated Cask Batch #1 (2016-2020) 70cl

1 of 1750 bottles made

Another exciting limited edition release from London's Bimber Distillery! This is its Peated Cask expression, initially matured in first-fill bourbon barrels before a finish in quarter casks which previously held a peated Islay single malt! A brilliant balance of creamy bourbon influence and maritime smokiness, just 1,750 bottles were released at 54.1% ABV.

The Bimber Peated Cask Batch No.1 was stored in fresh bourbon barrels. The whisky was then finished in former quarter casks that previously contained peated whisky from the island of Islay. On July 30, 2020, the whisky was bottled in an edition of 1,750 bottles and a strength of 54.1% ABV without chill filtration and in natural colour.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: crisp, clean notes of fresh peaches, toffee and custard, with floral notes of juniper, a hint of smoke and tobacco leaves

Palate: powerful start with a rich and oily mouthfeel, stone fruits and lemon zest paired with butter biscuits, charcoal and medicinal peat smoke

Finish: A dry finish of last bonfire smoke and peppery spices.
