From one of Scotland’s most innovative young distilleries comes another exciting release. 🌊🥃
The Isle of Raasay Hungarian Oak Limited Release is the third expression in the distillery’s Oak Species Maturation Series, exploring the influence of different oak species on their signature island spirit. This release is matured in seasoned ex-Oloroso sherry barriques made from Hungarian Quercus petraea oak from the Zemplén Mountains.
Crafted from both peated and unpeated spirit made with 100% Scottish barley, and bottled at 50% ABV, natural colour and non-chill filtered, this limited release offers remarkable depth and balance, with layers of spice, sweetness and smoke.
Expect notes of orange peel, roasted hazelnut, cinnamon and sponge cake on the nose, followed by ginger, coffee, sherry and dark chocolate on the palate, finishing with lingering sweet orange, warming spice and smoky bacon.
With an outturn of just 8,000 bottles worldwide, this is a fascinating release for fans of innovative cask maturation and distinctive island whisky.
Available now both in-store and online at Highland Whisky Shop. 🥃🥃
