The An Orkney Distillery 2007 ElD The Single Malts of Scotland Reserve Casks is a distinguished single malt whisky, distilled in 2007 and matured for over 13 years in three ex-sherry butts. This limited edition bottling, brought to you by Elixir Distillers under The Single Malts of Scotland Reserve Casks label, boasts an ABV of 48% and comes in a 700ml bottle. The whisky originates from a "secret" distillery in the Orkney Islands, known for its old-school sherry profiles and meticulously crafted spirits. On the nose, the aroma is rich and sweet with notes of maple syrup, plums, dark chocolate, and berries. Subtle hints of pipe tobacco, leather, and spices such as nutmeg and pimento add depth. The palate follows with a great texture, starting off sweet with maple syrup and plums, leading into a heavy, dark chocolate dominance. The taste is complemented by wood berries, earthy notes, and a mix of pimento and pepper. The finish is long and complex, with lingering oak, tannins, dark chocolate, and a touch of spice. This whisky’s profile is characterized by its balance and drinkability, with layers of flavors that range from sweet and fruity to spicy and earthy, making it an exceptional dram for both enthusiasts and newcomers. The influence of European oak and ex-sherry casks is evident, giving it a robust character that's both traditional and unique.
