Made by the owners of Torabhaig distillery on the Isle of Skye, Caisteal Chamuis is a heavily peated blended malt scotch whisky that offers complex layers of smokiness.

Initially aged in refill and first-fill American oak hogshead casks before an ageing period in a combination of new American oak 250-litre barrels with fresh oloroso sherry wine-seasoned European oak heads, and refill hogsheads. After blending, the final finishing period is in smaller 200-litre first fill ex-bourbon barrels.

Avaliação e degustação


Experimentado em 03/02/2024

Aparência:

Clear, pale golden amber.

Aroma:

Smoking embers, earthy peat, seaweed, soy sauce, lemon and vanilla.

Sabor:

Chewy smoke and generous maltiness with sweet vanilla, butterscotch, a touch of tar and lemon zesty oak.

Aftertaste:

Long and smoky. Pleasing toasty oak dominates the smoke towards the end.

No geral:

A generous alcohol strength and heavy peating should help make this an assertive whisky, but thanks to clever ageing Caisteal Chamuis is a relatively gentle and sweet giant.
