Eden Mill Sherry Cask is a single malt Scotch whisky from Eden Mill Distillery near St Andrews, Fife, matured with Oloroso sherry casks and bottled at 46% ABV.
One half of Eden Mill's flagship core range, it is described by the distillery as a Lowland whisky with a Highland heart: Eden Mill deliberately pairs its light, clean Lowland new-make spirit with a robust, fruity sherry style. Eden Mill sits near St Andrews, the home of golf, and is known as a sustainably minded distillery.
Oloroso brings dried fig, dark fruit, warm spice and nutty richness to the clean Fife spirit: dark fruit, vanilla and gentle sherry sweetness with a soft coastal freshness on the nose, then toffee, dark cherry and warming spice, and a medium-long finish of dark fruit and sherry oak.
Presented in its distinctive box, it makes a fine gift.
Enjoy it neat or with a drop of water.
Scotch whisky must be distilled and matured in Scotland for at least three years in oak casks, and any age statement on the label refers to the youngest whisky in the bottle.
Single malt Scotch whisky is made only from malted barley at a single distillery and aged at least three years in oak casks in Scotland.
Oloroso is a rich, nutty style of sherry aged in contact with air; casks that held it lend dried fruit, walnut and warm spice.
Bottled at 46% ABV, it keeps more texture and flavour than a standard 40% whisky.
Fife, the coastal kingdom between the Firths of Forth and Tay, has a long whisky-making history, and Eden Mill is among the distilleries reviving it.
