2013 Berry Bros. & Rudd Penderyn, Cask Ref. 7526, Single Malt Whisky, Wales (57.9%)
- World Whisky
Description
‘Having, since early childhood, holidayed repeatedly in various splendid parts of Wales, it has been delightful to watch the development of the first Welsh single malt in the modern era. Fascinating and characterful spirit is produced and then aged in an admirably wide range of cask types. To offer this very first ever Welsh whisky under our label has been a real pleasure, I feel sure there are more barrels of this calibre to be found in the Brecon Beacons.’
Rob Whitehead, Spirits Buyer, Berry Bros. & Rudd
A warming spicy nose offers notes of sweet Madeira, Victoria Sponge and lashings of golden syrup. A little time in the glass allows the distillate to power through bringing some green apple and barley sugars into the equation. The chewy palate shows a good balance of sweet sticky dried fruit notes from the cask balanced off with fresher citrus bursts and perhaps a little nuttiness on the back palate. A well made whisky that delivers well in the powerful cask.
