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. The Vintage Malt Whisky Company, selected this single cask, distilled in 2010, and released it at 12 years old in its The Cooper's Choice range. Single cask 801362 gave 300 bottles, released for Europe.
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 53.5%, without dilution, American oak from the ex-Bourbon cask supplies vanilla and coconut, with eugenol adding a touch of clove. At 12 years the wood and the salty, nutty spirit are roughly in balance. The recorded notes run to cocoa, dried fruit, honey, leather, malt sweetness and a nutty note.
