The Spirits Room Isle of Raasay Oloroso Quarter Cask 21/122, Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 59.7%

Our first ever single cask bottling comes from the fabulous Isle of Raasay Distillery. 

Using 100% Scottish Barley, this lightly peated single malt has spent three and a half years maturing in a small ex-Oloroso quarter cask.

The increased contact between sherry-soaked oak and whisky means this seemingly young whisky is already fully matured, with intense, rich, character, gorgeous dark ruby colour, and bags of flavour.

A stunning whisky from one of Scotland's finest distilleries, we proudly present The Spirits Room x Isle of Raasay Single Malt Whisky.

 

Tasting Note: 

Nose:  Rich toffee, cinnamon, cola, glacée cherry, soft pears, star anise, smoky cocao, mossy vegetation, sweet smoky barley.

Palate:  Sweet, then spicy, rich, and untuous. There’s flavours of clootie dumpling, brown sugar, and a touch of orange citrus

Finish:  A chilli-like heat and spiciness on the finish, backed up by toffee and barley sweetness, bitter herbs, dew-damp heather, and sooty, salty, biltong smoke.

About the distillery

The first legal distillery on the Hebridean Isle of Raasay. The magical Isle of Raasay lies off the West coast of Scotland in the Inner Hebrides, separated from the Isle of Skye by a short 25 minute ferry journey.

Rooted in centuries of illicit distilling, Raasay provides the ingredients for the perfect dram. Every drop of spirit is distilled, matured and bottled on the island using water from the Raasay Distillery well.

The classic Isle of Raasay Single Malt is matured in a combination of 3 different oak casks, put together from a 50:50 mixture of peated and unpeated whisky, distilled and matured separately. The style is rich, fruity and dark, with beautiful balance and exceptional flavour.

A gin is also produced at Raasay using ten carefully chosen botanicals, including Raasay juniper, rhubarb root, sweet orange peel and our triple distilled spirit. The result is dry, zesty and refreshingly smooth.
