North British 16 Years Old Palo Cortado Sherry Cask Finish Pintail

ABV: 54.9% 70 cL

This single grain whisky was distilled at the North British Distillery in Edinburgh. Initially, it was aged in refill ex-Bourbon barrel, before being finished in a single Palo Corado sherry octave cask to complete its 16 years of maturation. The resulting whisky carries notes of golden syrup, orange zest, beeswax, buttery pastries and sweet spice. 

It was bottled by Pintail at natural cask strength, without chill-filtration or artificial colouring.
