Description

Proudly celebrating his family's roots in moonshine production - and even using the Polish word for moonshine, 'Bimber' - Dariusz Plazewski set up his London-based distillery in 2015 with Ewelina Chruszczyk after emigrating from Poland. Bimber is one of only a handful of working distilleries in London and of even fewer in the whisky-making industry. They pride themselves on a natural environment. This particular release from the 'Shoulders of Giants' series celebrates William Shakespeare, the playwright. It is a single cask, limited edition, non-chill filtered, and natural colour single malt London whisky, bottled at cask strength.

Nose
Fresh, green, lightly minty with lemon, apples, peaches, melons, cream soda, and fresh malt. Caramelized notes, a lightly hoppy/dried floral note from the beer influence. Also orange sherbet, powdered sugar, honey, pineapple, mango, artificial banana, Jamaican rum esters, candied ginger, subtle wasabi, and vanilla.
Palate
Distinct maltiness, dry leafy quality, herbal bitterness, aniseed, and darker caramel. Walnuts and a savoury hint. Quite malty, cereal notes (some green), slightly sour, bready. Syrupy mouthfeel, drying, with citrus and tropical fruits, dark chocolate, stout notes, ginger, pepper, chalk, and a light saltiness.
Finish
Long, dry, and spicy with tropical fruit.
