NZ SINGLE MALT WHISKY [PEATED]

This fascinating and delicious expression has been created by Patrick Newton our head
distiller, and exemplifies our DYAD wine finish range. Double distilled in copper pot stills in February 2018 from a half tonne mash of NZ peated malt, the liquid was first aged in American oak for 4 years. Patrick also made the fortified wine that lent us the barrel, in a port style from Petit Verdot grapes grown 300 m from our Distillery.
This particular whisky was then finished for the past year in this Waiheke Island Vintage ‘Port wine’ Barrel.

Aroma: dark berry fruits, dried dates, orange peel, vanilla and peat smoke
Palate: rich and mouth filling with red fruits, caramel and smoke with a sweet subtle oak finish.
