The Apogee XII Pure Malt Whisky is an exceptional blend of single malt whiskies sourced from the renowned Highland and Speyside regions, each matured for a minimum of 12 years. Crafted by Bimber Distillery, this whisky undergoes a meticulous blending process followed by additional aging in ex-bourbon casks previously used to mature Bimber's celebrated London single malt whisky. The final touch is an additional maturation in exclusive ex-Bimber Oak casks. This process enhances the whisky, resulting in a honeyed and nutty flavor profile with notes of marmalade on malt loaf and toasty ginger biscuits.
Bottled at a robust 46.3% ABV, Apogee XII is presented in a bespoke glass bottle with a hammered design that echoes the surface of Bimber's small copper pot stills. This whisky is free from artificial coloring and chill-filtration, ensuring a pure and natural tasting experience. Apogee XII strikes a flawless balance, enriched with additional layers of flavor and complexity derived from the fruit and spice-forward character of the ex-Bimber casks. On the nose, aromas of roasted pears, caramel, and ginger tantalize the senses. The palate is treated to a symphony of flavors, including syrupy orchard and stone fruits, lightly charred oak, gentle white pepper, and cooling mint. Spiced pears and oven-baked apricot flans are sweetened by candy necklaces and scented with rosewater, nutmeg, and powdered ginger. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a delectable taste of honey-drizzled peaches and a hint of earthy spice.
As the first small batch of pure malt whisky released by Bimber, Apogee XII is a testament to the distillery's unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation in the art of whisky making.
