Product description

SRV5 is derived from the location of the distillery (Station Road) and the name of the cask (Vat 5). The capacity of Vat 5 is 1,200 litres, in which the whisky components, already matured for 8 years, are blended. In addition to the cask size, the special bottling method, which is reminiscent of the solera process, is also unconventional. Only a part of the contained quantity is taken out of the vatting barrel. Thus, a residual quantity of about 450 litres always remains in the cask, which is then filled up with new Single Malts. Before the final bottling without cooling filters and without adding colour, the Blend is still diluted to 48.5% vol. in a separate container. The Thompson Bros have been producing in the small town of Dornoch near the Scottish Highland coast since 2016. The Dornoch distillery was founded by crowdfunding in 2016 and is located on the grounds of the Dornoch Castle Hotel.

Kommentar: Braucht viel Zeit und Luft im Glas, macht dann aber unheimlich auf. Sehr tief&komplex und vollmundig, schwer zu fassen. Allerdings kein Hauch von Rauch zu spüren. Trotzdem sehr gelungener Blend!

Kommentar: zunächst sehr verschlossen, aber dann nach einer Weile kamen die typischen Bourbon Fass Aromen durch. Der Alkohol ist megagut eingebunden und das Mundgefühl sehr cremig. Allerdings könnte ich den Islay Anteil nicht wahrnehmen.
