North Star Spirits 23 Year Old 1993 Blended Malt Whisky (2017) 70cl
1 of 400 bottles
Vega is a blended malt Scotch whisky from the North Star Spirits chaps, made with whiskies aged for at least 23 years in both Spanish and American oak casks. It was named after the star in the Lyra constellation, not after the claw-wielding Street Fighter character. 400 bottles were produced.
The drink has earned itself somewhat of a legendary status with those who look back and remember what a fantastic blended malt this was. It still is today.
North Star Spirits was founded in Glasgow in 2016 by Iain Croucher. They have since developed a strong reputation for bottling fantastic single cask and small batch whiskies, as well as the much-lauded Vega and Spica blends.
Tasting Notes
Nose : Bourbon-y caramel at first, with light peat smoke and poached pear following soon afterwards.
Palate : Robustly malty, with plenty of vanilla and treacle. A subtle touch of mineral-y smoke.
Finish : Chilli chocolate and brandied cherries.
About North Star Spirits
Astronomy plays a massive part in the storytelling narrative of our core whisky range. Our vision is reflected in our company name. The North Star is the anchor of the northern sky. It is a landmark, or sky marker, that helps those who follow it determine direction as it glows brightly to guide and lead toward a purposeful destination. It also has a symbolic meaning, for the North Star depicts a beacon of inspiration and hope to many. North Star focuses its energies on the curiosities, peculiar oddities, and obscurities - whisky as it comes, straight from the cask and into a bottle - without any fancy tricks.
