Wormtub 12yo Single #5
Back for a fifth batch, it’s the much-adored single cask edition of Wormtub 12 Year Old single malt! This Speysider finished its maturation in a single first-fill oloroso sherry hogshead before it was bottled at cask strength, a robust 58.2% ABV. Worm tubs are a classic bit of distilling kit that can achieve distinctly characterful, heavy, robust flavour profiles. To ensure that remains the case here, this whisky has not undergone any chill-filtration and has no added colour, the vibrant hue you see here is all thanks to that glorious sherry cask!
Tasting Note
Nose Sticky sweet sultanas, dense fruit cake, milk chocolate raisins and tangy marmalade, with hearty helpings of baking spice in tow.
Palate Generous layers of rich, oily malt and nuts bring notes of cured meat, spiced fruit loaf, and dense sherried oak.
Finish Rich layers of oak and sherry linger alongside meaty malt, currants, preserved walnuts, and a touch of savoury spice.
