The Lakes, Whiskymaker's Edition, Iris, Single Malt Whisky, England (56%)

Description

With a bright golden colour, this whisky shows the mastery of wood that the Lakes Distillery can master. Considerable skill has gone into selecting these casks at the peak of flavour, yet still with only a featherlight touch. The whisky is effortlessly sweet on the palate and beautifully textured without hinting of rasping tannin or unwarranted girth. Ideally, a dram of this would sit handsomely alongside still-warm bread slathered with local wildflower honey.

Barley

Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
