The Lindores Abbey Friar John Cor The Cask Strength Congregation Chapter I is a limited edition whisky presented by The Lindores Distilling Co. Ltd., situated in the historic Lowland region. Bottled in 2023 at a robust cask strength of 60.2% ABV, this whisky epitomizes the mastery and tradition of the Lindores Abbey Distillery. This small batch variant has been meticulously matured in an exquisite blend of ex-Bourbon, ex-Sherry, STR (shaved, toasted, and recharred) wine casks, and ex-Monbazillac wine casks, each contributing unique nuances to the final profile. The Monbazillac casks impart a natural sweetness and complexity, harmoniously elevating the classic Lindores style. The Friar John Cor series showcases Cask Strength whiskys, each chapter offering a distinct recipe. Chapter I tantalizes the senses with a powerful nose of ripe bananas, apricots, apples, peaches, honeycomb, and fresh pastries. The palate is equally impressive, unveiling layers of rich dates, spicy cinnamon, fig, blood orange, nutty almonds, and waves of vanilla. The finish is medium to long, carrying forward the delightful fruit and nut flavors in a warming embrace. Bottled onsite without chill filtration and with no added coloring, this whisky remains pure and unadulterated, preserving its authenticity and depth. The striking black bottle design draws inspiration from the black cloth tunic worn by the Lindores monks in 1494, paying homage to the distillery's storied past. A few drops of water are recommended to temper the whisky's hefty edge, enhancing its sweetness and drinkability. The Lindores Abbey Friar John Cor The Cask Strength Congregation Chapter I promises a truly exceptional and memorable dram.
