Description
From the quaint kitchen of a country house, fabulous smells arose. Delicious sponge cake with a layer of strawberry jam was drizzled with elderflower syrup, while pineapple chunks were steeped in calvados and honeysuckle petals rested on a gooseberry fool. Warm custard tarts were topped with nutmeg as battenberg cake was prepared on a sideboard. A little water delivered camomile tea, before homemade cloudy lemonade was served with fresh peaches and apricots. Finally, the creamy textures of porridge merged with more custard as brown sugar melted on top and the fine tannins of black tea lingered in the background. At 28 years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
