Description
Built in 1871 near the fishing port of Buckie, Inchgower makes a briny, nutty malt that has long been a backbone of Bell's. Pendulum Spirits Ltd selected this single cask, distilled in 2009, and released it at 12 years old in its Fable Whisky - Chapter Ten range. Single cask 801616 gave 277 bottles, released for the Netherlands.
Inchgower's four stills carry steeply angled lyne arms that hold back the heavier, oilier vapours, part of why the malt comes out nutty, waxy and faintly saline. This bottling matured in an ex-Bourbon cask.
Bottled at its natural cask strength of 58%, without dilution, the ex-Bourbon wood gives vanillin for vanilla and oak lactones for coconut, with maltol lending toffee. At 12 years the wood and the salty, nutty spirit are roughly in balance. The recorded notes run to cocoa, citrus, dried hay and vanilla.
