Description

This is a limited edition single cask bottling from Bimber Distillery, released in collaboration with Sea Shepherd. It commemorates the "Whisky & Waves" project, where a team of swimmers transported drams of whisky across the English Channel to raise money for Sea Shepherd New Zealand. The whisky was distilled in 2017, aged for 4 years, and bottled in 2021. It was initially matured in bourbon casks and then finished in a Madeira cask. Only 292 bottles were produced.

Nose
Really nice, with a generous dose of dry Madeira character. Pineapples, peaches and sour (cran)berries shine through, with raisins and a nice mustiness. Old furniture. Then fruit cake, lemons and some bourbonny spice.
Palate
Still this fruity acidity. Plenty of citrus notes, hints of redcurrants and sour cherries, mixed with dried fruits, a light herbal astringency and plenty of tobacco notes. Lots of toasted oak, a light leafy bitterness and dark chocolate. Cumin and pepper. Makes us think of rum at some point, old Enmore perhaps.
Finish
Long but quite extractive. Rather wood-driven with herbal tea against a backdrop of dried fruits.
