Product information "Raasay Batch #2 46,4%vol. 0,7l"

Peated and unpeated raw spirits, matured separately on the Raasay coast in three selected barrel types: the Isle of Raasay single malt in a nutshell.

For whiskey gift hunters, the distillery from the tiny Scottish island is now reloading batch # 2 of its characterful single malt whiskey.

First Fill Rye Whiskey Casks, Virgin Chinkapin Oak Casks, First Fill Bordeaux Red Wine Casks - this barrel combination has never existed in the history of Scotch whiskey.

Then came the Isle of Raasay Distillery.

What's in the pioneer barrel combination?

Elegance, complexity and depth of character.

In island whiskey, cherry meets apricot and wood smoke meets salted caramel.

The raw spirit brings dark fruity notes with it, while Raasay water rich in minerals and a very long fermentation of up to 118 hours (5 days) provide the characteristic taste of sweet blackberry fruits even before each barrel contact.

The young distillery emphasizes the Raasay character with its own bottle shape.

The uneven surface captures the wild beauty of the island landscape and its geological heritage.

The basis for the Signature Single Malt is malt made from Scottish barley, kilned over Highland peat.

Yet!

The declared aim is to only use ingredients from the windswept Hebridean island.

The founders, Bill Dobbie and Alasdair Day, brought barley cultivation back to Raasay in May 2017 after more than 40 years.

Since then, the old Icelandic varieties Bere and Iskria have been thriving here.

Nose: sweetness and smoke, wood smoke in sea air - dried and ripe apricots, candied fruits and ice-cream cherries

Taste: Sweet spices, cinnamon and black pepper as well as black currant and wood smoke, with heather, honey and salted caramel, sweet and salted popcorn and black cherries

Finish: pleasantly dry and long with a hint of salt, fine wood smoke and dried fruits

Distilled: 22.11.2017 - 27.02.2018

Bottled: 17.08.2021 (ongoing)

Customer evaluation for "Raasay Batch #2 46,4%vol. 0,7l"

From: Jonathan On: 2 Jan 2022

This rating has not been checked for authenticity.

In der Nase ist der Torf sehr präsent, macht im Mund dann Platz für Kirschen und reife Früchte. Sicher sind die Bordeaux-Fässer dafür (mit)verantworlich. Die fruchtige Süße harmoniert sehr schön mit dem verbleibenden Torf.
Im Abgang wird es mineralischer und bleibt weich, die Jugend merkt man mMn nicht.
Freue mich schon auf zukünftige Abfüllungen.
