Description
Classed by Diageo among its nutty and spicy malts, Inchgower is the Manzanilla of Speyside, its coastal saltiness setting it apart from its floral neighbours. Meadowside Blending selected this single cask, distilled in 2001, and released it at 18 years old in its The Maltman range. Single cask 197711 gave 482 bottles, released for Europe.
A quick mashing regime and a warmer second water give Inchgower the savoury, saline character that earns it the Manzanilla of Speyside nickname. This bottling matured in an Oloroso sherry cask.
Bottled at its natural cask strength of 50.1%, without dilution, the Oloroso sherry cask layers raisin and fig from its melanoidins over a drying, nutty oak grip. At 18 years the cask has had time to round off the spirit's coastal edge and pull the flavours together. The recorded notes run to a sherry note, stewed fruit, dried fruit, leather, cocoa and a rubbery note.
