Description
On the Cromarty side of the Moray Firth, Inchgower distils a coastal, savoury malt that has fed Bell's and other Diageo blends for decades. Signatory, the long established Edinburgh independent, bottled this, distilled in 2011, and released it at 13 years old in its 100 Proof - Edition #53 range. It was 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 Oloroso sherry cask.
Bottled at its natural cask strength of 57.1%, without dilution, the Oloroso sherry cask layers raisin and fig from its melanoidins over a drying, nutty oak grip. At 13 years the wood and the salty, nutty spirit are roughly in balance. The recorded notes run to dried fruit, a sherry note, stewed fruit, cocoa, honey and leather.
