Caskells - Auchroisk 9y, 2009, 46%, 74b
Caskells own bottling, finished using quarter casks.
Auchroisk was built for the blending industry and is a relatively young distillery. It is usually seen in single malt form in an IB bottling such as this.
Bottled at 46%, natural colour. In our opinion, it does very nicely in a tumbler with a couple of chunks of ice. Flavours tend towards honey-esque sweetness, cereal notes, into a drying wood/oaky finish. A good example of bourbon cask style whisky (hence the gold yellow colour from this single cask whisky)
We started our own bottlings in 2017.
Only 74 bottles from this quarter cask
