The English Single Cyder Cask #12873 Whisky 9 Year Old · 2016 Vintage
In stock
This 9-year-old release from The English was matured in a single cyder cask and bottled at a natural strength of 57.7% ABV. The cyder cask gives the whisky a brighter, more fruit-led profile than a more traditional oak maturation, adding orchard fruit character and a gentle, fresh sweetness to the distillery’s naturally approachable style.
That cask influence suits the whisky well, bringing notes of apple, pear, vanilla and soft spice into focus without losing structure.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Bright golden amber with sunlit honey tones and a soft orchard-apple glow.
Nose
Fresh apple and pear mingle with vanilla and soft oak, lifted by a touch of honeyed sweetness.
Palate
Orchard fruit on the palate—apple and pear with gentle spice and sweet malt, lightly tempered by caramel. A crisp, fruit-led edge keeps the sip bright and balanced through the whisky’s natural warmth.
Finish
A long, balanced finish with lingering orchard fruit—apple and pear—soft spice and a gentle kiss of oak. The cyder cask leaves a subtle honeyed sweetness that lingers, framed by bright fruit and a crisp malt finish.
