The Classic Cask
23 Year Full Collection // Set of 4
Product Description
Since 1999, The Classic Cask has provided discerning enthusiasts particularly fine blended Scotch whiskies of superb quality. The Classic Cask 23 Year Old Selection began with the acquisition of superlative casks of single malt Scotch whiskies from Speyside, Highlands, & Islands distilleries. All were selected by distinguished Master Blender, David Hallgarten of the Glenaden Distilling Company, and matured in their original casks (New European Oak Butts) for a minimum of 23 years. The whiskies are then judiciously blended and married in vats for 6 months, then returned to casks for additional maturation and finishing. This set of 4 includes all for expressions from this incredible selection.
Mid amber in color, the bold 23 Year Original Cask Scotch Whisky was aged in first fill European Oak Butts for its entire 23 years of aging. The nose is honey and vanilla, with fruity, citrus and toffee notes on the palate and an unusually smooth finish.
Upon the age of 23 years, the 23 Year Oloroso Sherry Butt Finish Scotch Whisky was further aged for an additional 6 months in first fill Oloroso Sherry butts. Antique mahogany in color, the Oloroso finished bottlings have a fresh sweet bouquet that exhibits pear and nutty aromas. Butterscotch and walnut are prominent on the palate followed by an extraordinarily smooth finish.
The 23 Year Caribbean Rum Barrel Finish Scotch Whisky was placed into former Caribbean Rum butts that once held Solera aged rums, and aged for 6 months. During that period, it picked up the distinctive rum features which added a new dimension to this thoroughly engaging whisky.
Finished for 6 months in a first fill Port pipes, the 23 Year Port Pipe Finish Scotch Whisky has distinctive red highlights. Its aroma is both fruity and oaky. The mouthfeel is enormous with raisins and fruitcake prominent on the palate. A long and magnificently rich finish add kudos to this luxurious expression.
The Classic Cask Small-Batch production is just that: never more than 800 bottles to a batch. Each bottle is numbered, its label indicating the total production output, as well as distillation and bottling dates.
