Description
A MasterBlend of 70% single malt, and 30% premium grain whisky made from unmalted barley in the Dunedin distillery. Aged for 21 years in American oak, ex-bourbon casks.
Years ago, in the Willowbank distillery in Dunedin, a batch of whisky was made in the distillery’s pot-stills using unmalted barley. This “single grain whisky” was then blended with 70% of their single malt, and placed into American Oak, ex-bourbon barrels. Twenty-one years later, we have carefully selected casks and bottled them as “High Wheeler”.
Nose | Elegant balance of baked pear and vanilla crisp with gentle floral notes.
Taste | Pear sweetness again, smooth and clean body.
Finish | Chilli pepper warmth giving way to a long salty and sweet finish.
