Description
Few Speyside distilleries taste of the sea, but Inchgower, near the Buckie fishing harbour, carries a briny, waxy character into almost everything it makes. van Wees selected this single cask, distilled in 2007, and released it at 14 years old in its The Ultimate range. It came from single cask 801385, released for Europe.
The distillery's spirit is built for body rather than elegance, nutty and waxy with a coastal salt note unusual for Speyside. This bottling matured in an ex-Bourbon cask.
Bottled at 46%, the ex-Bourbon barrel adds vanilla from vanillin and a coconut note from oak lactones, over a light cereal sweetness. At 14 years the wood and the salty, nutty spirit are roughly in balance. The recorded notes run to a nutty note, dried fruit, fresh oak, vanilla and a yeasty note.
