Tasting Notes

Imagine sinking your teeth into a warm slice of blackberry jam toast, the earthy sweetness mingling with a hint of savory tobacco and a sprinkle of cinnamon spice. That's the aroma that greets you with this Willowbank 18 Year Old whisky. On the palate, it's like a symphony of cherry, chocolate, and brown sugar dancing across your tongue, balanced by woody tannins and a soft, drying whisper of baking spices. As the flavors linger in the finish, you're embraced by the lingering sweetness of red fruit and a subtle leather note. This whisky, aged in red wine casks, captures the brilliance of those ruby-hued fruit notes, offering a truly unique and exceptional experience from the sadly-closed New Zealand distillery. It's a taste of liquid history, a moment in time bottled up for your indulgence.
