Cask No. 68.111

Our mezze platter overflowed with pork souvlaki skewers, lamb kofta, kalamata olives, tzatziki and muhammara (red pepper and walnut spread) for pitta bread. On the sweet and herbaceous palate we enjoyed a sip of krasomelo, a Greek mulled wine made with Metaxa brandy. After reduction we stayed in the Mediterranean with classic Neapolitan wafer biscuits and saffron buns on the nose, while to taste a sweet vibe of whipped Greek-style yoghurt with crunchy honey fudge clusters. After 11 years in a bourbon hogshead, we transferred this whisky into a first fill barrique from a privately owned small bodega, now in its ninth generation, that focuses exclusively on the Pedro Ximénez grape.
