Barr an Uisce 1803 Single Malt 16 years

Bright gold in colour. Nose: Citrus notes at first – mandarin. Then butterscotch, toffee and caramelised aromas. Palate: Oily textured and mellow in the mouth with hints of toffee and vanilla. Finish: Some spiciness in the finish with toasty oak lingering.

Matured for 16 years, this special whiskey displays all the hallmarks of extended wood aging. The ‘cereal’ character of the malted barley has melded with the flavours and aromas of the white American oak (Quercus Alba) and shows the sweet vanilla, toasted coconut and caramelised notes of the charred wood.
