Penderyn Madeira Finish Single Malt Welsh Whisky
In stock
Penderyn's signature whisky is matured in ex-Bourbon casks and then finished in ex-Madeira wine casks. Light, fresh, and aromatic with sweet vanilla, dried fruits, and delicate spice.
"At the start, a savoury meatiness is studded with raisin and spread with sugary royal icing that wafts out of the glass. On the palate there is a big, tannic middle surrounded by a light sugary sweetness that leads to a long finish of perfumed fruit and dry wood."

Tasting Notes
Colour
Radiant amber-gold with coppery highlights and a warm, honeyed glow that glints through the glass.
Nose
Light, fresh, and aromatic, with sweet vanilla, dried fruits, and delicate spice; a subtle savoury meatiness unveils raisin notes, lifted by a waft of sugary royal icing.
Palate
Initial savoury meatiness, raisin and a whisper of vanilla from the Madeira finish. A bold, tannic middle sits beneath a light sugary sweetness, expanding to a long finish of perfumed fruit and dry wood.
Finish
Long and elegant, the finish carries perfumed fruit and dry wood, followed by a gentle sweetness and a final whisper of spice.
