Tasting Notes
This remarkable Rìgh Seumas I 7 Year Old 2011 whisky from Murray McDavid's The Vatting series is a true delight for the senses. Crafted with a blend of whiskies from bourbon, sherry, and wine casks, it boasts a rich fruity oak aroma accompanied by gentle wafts of smoky peat. On the palate, it unveils a delightful symphony of dark fruits and roasted malt, subtly complemented by hints of salinity. The medium-dry finish lingers with enticing notes of sweet malt, leaving a lasting impression. Bottled at a robust 50% ABV in 2018, this peaty malt pays homage to master blender Jim McEwan, with its name 'Rìgh Seumas' translating to 'King James.' A true testament to the art of blending, this whisky is a must-try for connoisseurs seeking a unique and flavorful experience.
