This limited expression of Penderyn Portwood single malt whisky acquires its delightful blush and syrupy character from a process of double maturation in ex-bourbon and rich ex-port casks.
Initially aged to almost full maturation in specially selected ex-bourbon barrels from Kentucky. Additional maturation follows in the finest Portuguese ex-port barriques, imparting typically smooth and fruity flavours from this iconic fortified wine.
A rich blush colour with copper hues, this whisky delights with a syrupy port character and notes of milky coffee and dark chocolate on the nose. In the taste, top notes of fresh strawberry and cream toffee come through first, complemented by vanilla, with dates, raisins and jam emerging. A lingering sweet finish of honey and sticky treacle will ensure this whisky is memorable long after its finished.
