Tasting Notes

Unveiling a delightful expression from the Lowland region, King's Inch 8 Year Old Single Malt Whisky captivates with its harmonious blend of flavors. Crafted from barley sourced from Scotland's west coast, this golden spirit gracefully unfolds with an inviting nose that evokes visions of freshly baked apple pie, creamy vanilla custard, and hints of warm cinnamon. Tropical fruit notes intertwine with the alluring aroma of honey-drizzled oak, creating an enchanting prelude. On the palate, an initial oakiness gives way to a silky liquorice and marzipan embrace, melting into a delightful symphony of nutty, creamy sweetness with tangy orange peel and buttery shortbread accents, all underpinned by the luscious essence of ripe mango. The finish offers a delightful contrast with a vibrant crack of black pepper, unveiling a delectable interplay of succulent figs and decadent orange chocolate lingering in the backdrop. Expertly crafted from a vatting of bourbon and sherry casks, this non-chill-filtered gem captured at 46% ABV showcases the region's hallmark fruitiness and lightness, making it an exquisite choice for whisky enthusiasts seeking a well-rounded and expressive dram.
