1995 Inchgower 20 Year Old Hepburn's Choice K&L Exclusive Single Barrel Cask Strength Single Malt Whisky (750ml)

Inchgower is a magical distillery that we don't see very often. Representing one of the most esoteric styles come out of Speyside, it's not producing a fine, easy little spirit. Instead, the distillery tends to produce more robust and complex whiskies, and when we find one that's not too over-the-top weird, we definitely jump on it. Here we have a wonderful example of this special whisky in a fabulous first fill sherry butt. Absolutely distinct, yet so familiar, this is the real deal. Sweet dried fruit on the nose, pointed with complex aromatics of fresh moss, ginseng, dried herbs, and supple sherry flavors. On the palate, the considerable alcohol (57.5%) is completely lost behind nutty fudge, bright ginger, and a wonderful orange citrus note. No sherry bomb by any means, but an incredibly balanced and drinkable whisky that just DESTROYS its price point. An absolute gem that everyone will regret not snatching up when they had the chance.
