The Bimber Notting Hill Gate Moscatel Sherry Cask is a remarkable single malt whisky, an integral part of the third release in Bimber Distillery's Spirit of the Underground series. This series is a homage to one of the most significant engineering endeavors of the last two centuries—the London Underground—and its profound influence on the city's history and culture. Distilled at the renowned Bimber Distillery in London, this whisky has been meticulously matured in a single Moscatel sherry cask (#285) and bottled at an impressive 59% ABV, with merely 342 bottles available, making it an exclusive collector’s item. The whisky was bottled in April 2022. Notting Hill Gate tube station, after which this whisky is named, boasts a rich historical tapestry. Opened in 1868 and extensively renovated in the 1950s, it now serves as a critical junction connecting the Circle and District lines with the Central line. The area surrounding the station is synonymous with vibrant entertainment, such as Europe's largest street festival, the Notting Hill Carnival, and the renowned Portobello Market. Each release in the Spirit of the Underground series undergoes a secondary maturation in different fortified wine casks. This particular expression is distinguished as the first Bimber whisky to be matured in a Moscatel sherry cask. This unique maturation process has imparted distinctive characteristics to the whisky, making it a noteworthy addition to Bimber's innovative portfolio. The Bimber Notting Hill Gate Moscatel Sherry Cask stands out as a singular and limited release that honors the historical and cultural legacy of London's underground network.
