2008 Cask #6894
Chinquapin Barrel
We’re delighted to present our eighth batch of single casks specially selected for the UK, each demonstrating the unique interaction of the wood, spirit, and subsequent flavour extension.
Renowned for his experimental spirit, Billy Walker has enjoyed working with virgin oak casks sourced from each corner of the world. This particular Chinquapin barrel (2008, #6894) was crafted from oak grown in the Northern Ozark region of Missouri in America. Delivering delicate hints of cinnamon and notes of aniseed alongside runny Scottish heather honey and sweet stone fruits, this extremely limited, glorious single malt is one to be savoured.
Bottled at 57.2%, unchillfiltered and natural colour, this expression is available exclusively in the UK.
