Tasting Panel Note

About Chiselled features: Cask No. 112.125 ‘Chiselled features’ is a lead character in The Odd Team. We feel strongly that a bold and spicy whisky such as this can solve most of the world’s problems. This one happens to come from a Highland distillery that is known to be the renaissance distillery of Scotland at large. It’s bold and assertive with layers upon layers of complexity. A special whisky that will inject some pizazz into any day you choose to enjoy it. 

Tasting Panel Note: The very intense scent almost overwhelmed us. We entered a joiner’s shop and found a mixture of aromas including wood shavings, glue and paint next to warm sand, coconut oil and treacle. Intense and smouldering on the palate, we found heavily brewed black chai aromatic herbal tea with ginger and cinnamon yet with a surprising menthol finish. After a drop of water, the joiner showed us chisel carvings on an exotic wood statue while a whiff of honey-roasted sweet potatoes, turnips and parsnips reached us from the kitchen. We enjoyed those alongside sautéed carrots with lemon and marjoram. Following 13 years in an ex-bourbon hogshead, we transferred this whisky into a first fill heavy charred hogshead.
