Out of stock
The Whiskymaker's Editons are exceptional diversions from the sherry led house style of the Lakes distillery. One of releases showcasing the sense of adventure of the whisky maker Dhavall Ghandi, in cask selection, maturation and blending.
For this release, the whisky has been matured in the finest, meticulously sourced Colheita Port casks and bourbon barrels.
Colheita means harvest, referring to the exclusive use of grapes from a single croip to create a vintage Tawny Port. In this edition the Whiskymaker's cask and maturation expertise brings Colheita Port into the frame, in combination with a small proportion of bourbon barrels.
