Producing artisan single cask whisky from various regions of Scotland as well as bottling rums, gins and Bourbon whiskey. All products are small batch, bottled at cask strength.
A wonderful creation by the team at North Star. This bottle contains Oloroso Sherry drawn from refill Hogshead casks that previously held whisky. A bit of a backwards way to think about this process but the result is outstanding especially if you have a sweet tooth. sherry casks used in whisky production are seasoned with sherry rather than used in sherry’s own production – the fresh wood imparts too much flavour for sherry – and once this seasoning is finished, the fortified wine has picked up enough oaky influence that it is no longer suitable for bottling as sherry. It may then be processed into sherry-vinegar. Made in Spain and bottled in Scotland. Only 370 bottles created at 17% ABV.
