Tasting Notes

Carpathian Single Malt Cabernet Sauvignon Cask Finish is a captivating whisky that blends the rich heritage of Romanian distilling with the art of wine cask finishing. Crafted by master distiller Allan Anderson, this expression starts its journey in traditional American oak bourbon casks, where it matures for over three years, developing a robust character. Afterwards, it's transferred to Cabernet Sauvignon wine casks from Alexandrion's own winery, allowing it to bask in the luscious notes of the bold red wine for 11 months. The result is a symphony of flavors – a honeyed sweetness intertwined with gingerbread and cinnamon spice, complemented by hints of oak. The palate is full and round, delivering a delightful sweetness that lingers with a final touch of spice. The finish is long and intense, leaving a lasting impression on the senses. This Romanian gem is a testament to the art of whisky-making, where tradition meets innovation.
