Description
Inchgower sits on the Moray Firth coast outside Buckie, a Speyside distillery in name whose malt is salty and savoury in a way the region's usually are not. Sansibar bottled this, distilled in 1975, from Inchgower's years under Arthur Bell & Sons, and released it at 38 years old. The outturn was 186 bottles, released for Germany.
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 its natural cask strength of 42.6%, without dilution, the ex-Bourbon barrel adds vanilla from vanillin and a coconut note from oak lactones, over a light cereal sweetness. After 38 years in wood this is an old Inchgower, the cask now a dominant voice over the surviving saline character.
