Isle of Raasay - 5 yo - Single Malt Whiskey - Single Cask #18/864 Peated Rye Cask

Special features: The Isle of Raasay Distillery, located on the island of the same name, is known for its innovative approaches to whisky production. The single malt is matured in a unique combination of first-fill rye whiskey casks, virgin chinkapin oak casks, and first-fill Bordeaux red wine casks. The Na-Sia series offers whisky lovers the opportunity to discover the six components of the recipe in the form of cask-strength single casks. This special bottling, matured in a peated rye cask, brings out the characteristic aromas of peated whisky with remarkable complexity.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Intense aromas of wood smoke, paired with spicy notes of pepper and sweet spices.
• Palate: A rich and full-bodied body that presents butterscotch and a subtle sweetness, underscored by the smoky influences of the rye.
• Finish: Long and warming, with a harmonious balance between smoke and sweet, spicy nuances that linger.

Distillery/Bottler: The Isle of Raasay Distillery was founded in 2017 and is the first legal distillery on the Isle of Raasay. The distillery aims to produce innovative and characterful whiskies that reflect the uniqueness of the Hebrides. The use of regional ingredients and experimentation in cask selection are central aspects of its philosophy.
