Description
Keith Bonnington is one of those people for whom whisky is the elixir of life. Based in Edinburgh, he bottles the finest whiskies under the name The Whisky Cellar. He is assisted by an experienced team of tasting professionals. The latest seven bottlings, some of which have undergone elegant final maturation, demonstrate that this combined expertise and refined palates pay off.
Three single casks from Speyside also benefited from liqueur cask maturation. The Glenrothes 11 yo, characterized by orange marmalade and cigar box notes, matured entirely in an Oloroso cask, while the dark-fruity, chocolatey Craigellachie 12 yo and the spicy-fruity Strathmill 15 yo were refined in the same cask.
Senior of the round is the Single Grain Scotch Whisky Girvan 34 yo 1989, filled in a Refill Bourbon Hogshead, it unfolds a complex panorama of sweet pears, coconut, tropical fruits and oak spice.
