Description
Inchgower is rarely bottled on its own, most of its salty, nutty spirit going to the blenders, so independent releases carry the distillery's name where the blends do not. van Wees selected this single cask, distilled in 2007, and released it at 12 years old in its The Ultimate range. Single cask 801382 gave 383 bottles, released for Belgium.
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 ex-Bourbon cask.
Bottled at 46%, 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 citrus, fresh orchard fruit, a nutty note and vanilla.
