Tasting Notes

Three Ships Whisky 6 Year Chenin Blanc Cask Finish is a South African single malt that dares to be different. Distilled in 2016, this whisky boasts a lighter profile than typical malts, thanks to a unique process. It spends four years in American oak before a two-year finish in Chenin Blanc casks. This imparts a vibrant gold color and a complex array of flavors: think tropical fruits, zesty lemon, and a touch of spice. The nose is inviting, with hints of lemon cream biscuits and rooibos tea. A limited edition release, it's a testament to South African whisky innovation.
