About this deal

Unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise, your use of and membership to the Service are exclusively governed by Dutch law. We shall first try to settle any dispute over a dram of whisky. Disputes that cannot be settled over multiple drams of whisky shall be solely submitted to the court of Amsterdam, The Netherlands unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise.

The bourbon cask influences are evident in the distinctive spice and vanilla flavors, but act as a nice compliment to the sherry finish notes. The two sherries offset each other nicely, adding nuts and dried fruit notes from the Oloroso and the sweet, golden raisin notes of the PX. That sweetness is nicely balanced and well integrated, and is free of the cloying, syrupy sweetness that can sometimes accompany PX finishes. The alcohol is smooth with a satisfying warmth, and is reminiscent of a fine Spanish brandy.This pad thai recipe isn’t authentic, but it’s so good and insanely simple to put together you won’t even care Not technically a Scotch whisky (since the final barrel aging and bottling takes place outside of Scotland), Nomad Outland is a blend of around 30 malt and grain whiskies from the Speyside region of Scotland (where Macallan, The Glenlivet, Aberlour and other classics are based). They age in ex-bourbon casks in northern Scotland between two and five years, then transfer to ex-Oloroso sherry casks for three more years. And then the blend travels to Jerez, Spain (sherry’s ancestral home) to rest another year in very freshly seasoned ex-Pedro Ximénez casks in the Nomad cellars of the González Byass wineries.

Our catalogue includes popular brands and rare varieties alike, giving us one of the largest collections of alcoholic beverages in South West England. In recent years, a number of distilleries have offered expressions that were either “double matured” or finished in a combination of Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks: Auchentoshan Triple Wood, Glenmorangie La Santa, and GlenDronach 12YO, 21YO and Cask Strength are all examples of this style. Oloroso sherry is dry, imparting notes of nuts, spice and dried fruit to the whisky. Pedro Ximénez, on the other hand, is produced from grapes that have been partially raisinated before pressing. It is extremely sweet and syrupy, and can impart distinctive sweet, raisiny and cooked fruit notes to Scotch.The French spirits company, La Martiniquaise, has released its Label 5, Sherry Cask Finish Reserve Blended Scotch Whisky, 70cl, 43% ABV, in select European markets. Whiskybase B.V. is the Dutch private limited liability company, having its statutory seat in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and its office at Zwaanshals 530, 3035 KS Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

Whether you enjoy cultivating a wide collection of diverse whiskies or have a tried-and-trusted favourite, you’ll find something to wet your whistle in the Drink Finder range.

The use of previously filled sherry butts in the aging of Scotch whisky has long been a ubiquitous feature of the Scotch industry. Historically, the practice was largely reserved for single malts. Macallan, GlenDronach and Balvenie were among the better-known distilleries that offered expressions that had been exclusively matured in one or more combinations of 500-liter sherry butts. Other distilleries offered expressions that had been “finished” from two months to two years in such sherry butts. On the palate there is a marked crème brûlée-like creaminess with the pronounced, oily, viscous mouth weight that is typically associated with heavily sherried whiskies. An unmistakable but restrained sweetness grows stronger on the palate with pronounced golden raisin and dried stone fruit flavors accompanied by caramel notes. There are also noticeable walnut and marzipan elements. Compass Box released a small quantity (3,439 bottles) of its Great King St. Experimental Batch (Sherry Finish, #00-V4) Blended Scotch Whisky, 50cl, 43% ABV.This time, the eight-year-old blend is finished in Ilegal Mezcal casks (Bacardi owns a minority stake in Ilegal). While you might assume this would bring a great deal of smoke to the palate, it's really only a wisp that curls around other flavors like caramel, butterscotch, and bright citrus. Overall, this is a nice sipping whisky that would also work quite well in a simple drink like a highball. The combination of the rich, sweet sherry influences and the spice-and-honey notes from the oak aging give the impression not unlike sipping a Manhattan or perhaps some sort of whisky liqueur. The slight bite of spice and smoke means this whisky also pairs beautifully with dark, full-bodied cigars. Palate: Towards the front there is a bright spiced honey which moves into a medium weight fruit-and-nut medley with unexpected sweetness.

Finish: The sweet fruit and honey notes refine as you swallow, providing a long, chewy vanilla/oak/raisin finish and just a faint hint of smoke. The overall mouth feel is a smooth, medium- to full-bodied whisky with both a surprising brightness and surprising sweetness. Giving alcohol as a gift has long been a practice associated with the ultimate level of class and prestige.

In 2001, Grant’s Sherry Cask Finish was the first sherry-finished Scotch blend released by a major whisky company. The expression was based on the same whiskies used in the Grant’s Family Reserve. After blending, the whisky was placed in Oloroso sherry butts and aged for an additional four months before being released.
