M&H Elements Peated is a single malt whisky from the Milk & Honey Distillery in Tel Aviv, Israel's first whisky distillery, bottled at 46% ABV and non-chill filtered. In this whisky, the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean.
A peated malt matured in casks that previously held Islay whisky, soaked with smoky aromas and salty flavours, is blended with ex-bourbon matured single malt that has aged under the hot Tel Aviv sun. The Mediterranean climate speeds up maturation, and the whisky is made from 100% malted barley, double distilled in copper pot stills.
The result is delicate, mellow and lightly peated, integrating the fruity notes of the new make with the typical peaty character of Islay casks.
Kosher certified, Elements Peated is a fascinating bottle from one of the world's most exciting new whisky regions.
