After an initial maturation in a Chardonnay cask that imparts the whisky with delicate sweetness featuring lovely vanilla and woody notes, this Single Malt Whisky undergoes an additional two-year finishing period in a red wine cask made from American oak from the Bodega El Coto de Rioja. This meticulous aging process contributes to its unique flavor profile.
Langatun Distillery is one of the most industrious whisky distilleries in Switzerland. Their portfolio of single malts is regularly expanded and revised; in addition to the time-honored classics, there are numerous special editions and cask-finished bottlings, as well as moonshines and whisky liqueurs to discover. For the maturation of the Langatun Cask Finishes, both white wine and red wine casks are used, which is a very bold step in a whisky industry dominated by bourbon barrels. The Rioja Cask Finish Single Malt Whisky underwent several years of initial aging in a Chardonnay cask after its distillation in 2012, followed by a two-year finishing period in a Rioja red wine cask made from American oak (225L barrique). This cask was sourced from Bodega El Coto in the renowned Spanish wine region of La Rioja, suggesting that the barrel was previously filled with a Tempranillo wine.
The distinctive combination of initial maturation in a Chardonnay cask followed by a finishing period in a Rioja red wine cask from Bodega El Coto de Rioja makes this whisky unique. This blend of influences results in a complex and captivating flavor profile.
There were only 444 bottles produced of this special edition Langatun 2012 Rioja Cask Finish.
This whisky has an ABV of 49.12%, which contributes to its rich and robust character.
The Langatun 2012 Rioja Cask Finish is a delightful exploration of innovative whisky aging techniques. The integration of the Chardonnay and Rioja cask influences creates a symphony of flavors that is both sophisticated and invigorating. With its limited release of just 444 bottles, this whisky offers a rare and enriching experience for any aficionado.
