Isle of Raasay Chinkapin Oak 5 Years Young Single Cask

Notes from the distillery:
This is the first ever age statement whisky from the Isle of Raasay Distillery, the first set in our aged single cask collection – ‘Na Sia Single Cask Series: Through The Ages’

Virgin Chinkapin Oak – UNPEATED – 5 Years Young

Freshly charred and toasted, these custom made Chinkapin, or Quercus Muehlenbergii,
American White Oak casks are a type of Oak native to Central and Eastern North America.
The fresh charring of the cask brings a rich colour and flavour early on in the maturation process and the high toast caramelises the natural sugars in the wood. Expect sweet toffee and butterscotch on the nose; with vibrant dark fruit flavours and deep, rich colours at a young age.
Natural cask strength, non-chill filtered, natural colour.

Flavour Profile:
toffee, Scottish tablet, sweet ginger, heather honey, dark fruits, red currants, malted granary bread.

ABV 61.4%
