Die Lakes Distillery im Nordwesten Englands hat unter der Ägide ihres Master Distillers/Whiskymakers Dhavall Gandhi die vierte Ausgabe der Whiskymaker’s Reserve veröffentlicht. Der Whiskymaker’s Reserve No. 4 wurde in Oloroso-, PX- und Rotweinfässern aus spanischer, französischer und amerikanischer Eiche gereift und mit 52% vol. abgefüllt. Kostenpunkt: 65 Pfund pro Flasche im Webshop – allerdings braucht man zur Zeit dafür leider eine englische Lieferadresse.

An evolution in the journey to define our sherry-led house style, this new whisky is an artistic exploration of maturation and blending. Supremely balanced and complex, it is a single malt whisky matured in the finest, meticulously sourced Oloroso, PX and red wine casks, comprising Spanish, American and French oak.
At 52% ABV and bottled at natural colour, it possesses the same sherry-led, wood-forward and flavour-packed characteristics of previous releases, with a more restrained, sophisticated, and almost Moorish influence.
Whiskymaker Dhavall Gandhi said:
From the American and Spanish oak casks, big notes of Manuka honey, sun-dried dates, and roasted cashew nuts lead to layers of dried fruit, nuts and spice, with an indulgent velvet-cream finish.
“One of our most complex yet approachable whiskies in the series to date, this is a well-balanced and contemplative whisky, ideal to enjoy after dinner or with good friends.”
Retailing at £65 for a 70cl bottle, you can find out more and shop at www.LakesDistillery.com.
