Wolfburn Langskip 750ml

Another ace whisky from the Wolfburn distillery way up in the north of Scotland. Langskip is matured exclusively in first-fill bourbon casks and is bottled at a generous 58% ABV, making it a particularly powerfully flavoursome dram. Impressive as ever from Wolfburn.

Nose: Demerara sugar, gingerbread, floral malt, white pepper and sugared almonds  Palate: Dried fruit begins to take control on the palate - think sultana and apricot. Still enjoyably nutty with walnut and macadamia. A good helping of nutmeg and stem ginger gives it some heat.  Finish: Last toffee apple sweetness and black pepper.
