Description
The Black Bottle DOUBLE CASK blended Scotch whisky is an exceptional blend with an alcohol content of 46.3% vol. for an intense and complex flavour experience. This whisky is a masterful combination of various malt whiskies matured in Spanish sherry casks and a 12-year-old grain whisky aged in a wine cask. The maturation in sherry casks gives the Black Bottle Double Cask its fruity character, while the wine cask adds an extra dimension and depth to the whisky.
The Black Bottle Double Cask is particularly suitable for lovers of complex blends who appreciate both fruity and spicy notes. The fruity character, which is enhanced by the sherry cask flavours, combines harmoniously with the smooth, malty notes of the grain whisky. The 46.3% alcohol content by volume ensures an intense yet smooth finish. This whisky is suitable for pure enjoyment as well as for the preparation of whisky cocktails and offers an excellent balance between complexity and drinking experience.
