Isle of Raasay Single Malt Whisky

Bordeaux Cask Peated (2022)

With their Single Cask series, the Isle of Raasay distillery are individually showcasing their six unique recipe casks. This edition focuses on a single peated spirit which is allowed to mature in a first fill ex-Bordeaux Red Wine cask (the cask numbers are printed on each bottle). This 2022 edition is peated, and has been specially selected and bottled for the Dutch market.

They use Scottish barley which is malted with highland peat. The colour is entirely natural, and the whisky is non-chill filtered.

The casks themselves are stained red from being filled with the bordeaux wine, and are delivered to the Island from a châteaux in the South West France. The first months in the casks result in the whisky developing a pink hue. This develops into a darker, more deeper red as the maturation evolves.

This is a whisky which is full of bold and fruity flavours (including dried fruits, sultana and grape). Rich christmas cake, and warming winter spices envelop the senses. Wood smoke, black cherries intermingle with maritime notes which remind of its origins on the Isle of Raasay.
