East London Liquor Company Single Malt Whisky

Description

Tasting Notes Single Malt Whisky made in the heart of the East End. This breaks all the rules but it’s damned drinkable. East London Liquor Company’s Single Malt Whisky is proper London. Not relying on all that hackneyed nonsense about rich traditions passed down through countless generations and it being the favourite of long-dead monarchs this is an innovative urban spirit that doesn’t take itself too seriously.; Crafted from 100% malted barley it was open-top fermented for 4-5 days using the futuristic sounding M-1 yeast and super-trendy saison yeasts. The former is a big favourite among Scotch makers while the latter are what give Belgian farmhouse ales their citrus banana and pepper flavours. It was then distilled through a double-pot still and matured in a mix of virgin American oak regenerated (old barrels that have been planed smoothed and re-toasted) Sherry and Kentucky Bourbon casks. The combination of beer and Scotch yeasts that protracted fermentation and all those different kinds of wood creates a bold complex and yet highly quaffable whisky. Its clove ginger banana granola oak toffee and cracked black peppercorn flavour profile and youthful vibrancy are screaming out to be sipped as a boilermaker or mixed into a highball. The East London Liquor Company brought spirits back to the heart of the East End for the first time in a century. Based in a former glue factory near Victoria Park they never stop innovating which is why this new bottle has shaved 60% off the carbon footprint of its predecessor and is 48% lighter. Crafting decent booze for decent people at decent prices ELLC feels like the future. Product Details Country: England Alcohol by volume (ABV): 47% Volume: 700ml
