Whisky from Master of Malt. It’s designed to celebrate the wormtub method of condensation, an old-fashioned yet rewarding technique in the distillation process.

A wormtub is a traditional way of condensing spirit vapour into liquid form. It is, in essence, a long copper tube, twisted into a coil and submerged in a vat of cold water. Inside the pot still, alcohol rises as a vapour and ascends the neck, before passing into the lyne arm and entering the copper tube, or worm. The cold water chills the copper and, on contact with the cold metal, the hot vapour condenses back to liquid and flows from the end of the tube.

This secret speyside whisky has been aged for 10 years and finished in sherry casks. It’s bottled at a natural colour and a cask strength of 56.1%

Tasting notes:
What a nose. It instantly offers you everything you’d expect from a big old sherry bomb with full-on dried fruits, tobacco leaves, leather and dark chocolate on the nose. The palate follows a similar theme, arriving in a burst of raisins, sultanas and maple syrup but transitions to dark chocolate, nutmeg and clove and then finishes in dry, sherry-soaked oak. Water releases caramel, honey and a touch of pepper.
