Notes

About Serendipitous sipper: Cask No. 35.400 ‘Serendipitous sipper’ is a co-star of the romance film, ‘The Years Between’. The second-fill bourbon barrel may just be the perfect vessel for long-term maturation and one sip of this proves exactly why. This 29 years old drinks like 39 (yes, there’s a difference) and it’s an incredible whisky for anyone who prefers the lighter, more elegant styles coming out of Speyside.
Tasting Panel Note: A hint of sandalwood incense merged with the vapour from a creamy hot chocolate as they accompanied coconut macaroons, toffee and banoffee pie in a chance encounter. Chocolate-coated raisins and sugar-coated fennel seeds embraced on the palate, adding a layer of lusciousness to cinnamon fudge, vanilla syrup, and toasted coconut flakes. Water released pineapple slices, flambéed in coconut rum, and served on a bed of sponge cake, marzipan and vanilla ice cream. Why the chance encounter? Following the discovery of a leak in its original cask, this whisky was transferred to a freshly emptied second fill barrel. Although not enough time had passed to be considered a second maturation, once sampled, the whisky was divine – so we simply had to bottle it!
