The upstart vs the original vs the master. All in Sherry (or apera) casks.
From the Aussies we've got the latest addition to Hobart Whisky's core range - their PX Solera. Replicating traditional solera methods, only a portion of the available whisky was bottled for this batch, leaving the rest to continue maturing in the traditional solera style. Joining Hobart is a very special release from Dram Full and Black Gate; a bottle that was released as a collaboration early on in the pandemic for a virtual tasting organised by Dram Full just as we were all confronted with lockdowns.
From the birthplace of modern whisky, Ireland, we have the only single malt in the Writer's Tears range; the Redhead - non chill-filtered, and a bright ruby red colour from its full maturation in Oloroso Sherry casks; this little Irish number will put up a decent fight against the bigger names from neighbouring Scotland! Also from Ireland is the very first single cask Redbreast single pot still ever (officially) brought into Australia - exclusively by Barrel & Batch. 19 years old, cask strength, with full maturation in Oloroso Sherry casks.
Scotland. A mecca for malt whisky lovers. Represented in this battle by 2 releases that will absolutely delight any Sherry cask lover - A cask strength single cask from the windswept isle of Orkney. Fully aged in a single European oak Sherry cask, and so very lightly peated - this whisky bring a big bold presence to the battle against Ireland &l Australia! Not to be outdone, the Scottish mainland comes to the party with a Glenrothes Sherry bomb like none you've experienced before - cask strength, no chill filterin, no added colour. Aged in Oloroso Sherry casks for 12 years before being finished in a collection of 64 litre 'octave' Oloroso Sherry casks; giving you a supercharged Sherry bomb with a luscious mouthfeel!
