The Slyrs 12yo Edition 2005 is a single malt whisky that undergoes a unique finishing process in a crocodile toasted cask, heavily charred to give the wood a surface resembling crocodile skin. Produced by the renowned Slyrs Distillery in Germany, this whisky benefits from a carefully controlled distillation process followed by 12 years of aging. An additional 12 months of refinement allows the whisky to penetrate deeper into the wood, resulting in pleasant complexity and fruity accents. Bottled in 2017 with an ABV of 43%, this limited edition run consists of only 4000 bottles, making it a rare gem for collectors and connoisseurs. This whisky is a true masterpiece, offering a unique and unforgettable tasting experience.

Overall: The Slyrs 12yo Edition 2005 offers an extremely fruity profile, which makes it special. However, it lacks some of the force and complexity expected from a high-end whisky. The presence of apricot and cereals in the aroma, combined with a fruity taste and a fairly long finish, makes it an interesting, albeit not universally appealing, choice.
The Slyrs 12yo Edition 2005 is an intriguing whisky that stands out due to its intense fruity character. While it excels in delivering a unique fruity experience with notes of apricot and cereals, it falls short in terms of the robustness and complexity that some whisky enthusiasts might expect. Despite this, its pleasant and fairly long finish ensures it remains an enjoyable choice for those who appreciate a fruit-forward profile.
