Description

Three Ships Whisky is produced at the James Sedgwick Distillery established in 1886 in Wellington, South Africa. The warm temperature accelerates the interaction between cask and spirit, allowing the whisky to show characteristics usually associated with older whiskies. This 12-year-old single malt release is part of the Master Distiller's Private Collection, highlighting carefully selected casks chosen for character and balance. It is matured in American oak casks and bottled at 46.3% ABV, non-chill filtered, and with no added color.
