The English Founders Private Cellar - Single Port Cask Whisky 16 Year Old · 2007 Vintage
In stock
This single malt whisky was distilled in early August 2007 and was one of the first port casks The English Company has ever filled. 16 years later, the whisky is delightful, with a hint of smoke and a wonderful taste of juicy dark fruits, ginger biscuits and a lovely oily texture creating a good long finish.
This sublime bottling is testament to the quality of whisky produced and a celebration of the Founders dream to make whisky in England.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold highlights and a warm mahogany edge.
Nose
Subtle smoke drifts over a core of dark fruits—ripe plum, blackberry and fig—lifted by warm spice and a hint of ginger biscuit. A touch of port sweetness and vanilla-tinged oak lend depth, weaving a polished, inviting aroma that promises a graceful, enduring finish.
Palate
On the palate, a gentle smoke threads through juicy dark fruits—plum, fig and blackberry—while ginger biscuit spice offers warmth. The port cask influence brings a refined sweetness that coats the mouth in an oily, velvety texture, delivering a long, balanced finish with echoes of fruit and smoke.
Finish
Delightful, long finish with a gentle smoky veil and juicy dark fruit sweetness that lingers. Ginger biscuits provide a gingerbread spice as an oily, silky texture coats the palate, unfolding into a refined warmth that persists with port-cask depth.
