The first “Casks of Lindores” bottling featured exclusively bourbon barrels, one of the three core cask types used at Lindores, and was limited to 11,000 bottles. We believe that the Lindores spirit goes extremely well with bourbon casks and helps showcase its early maturing characteristic. The very long wash fermentation period in our Douglas fir washbacks, coupled with our “Sister Spirit stills distillation” helps create a spirit that matures early but we also believe will continue to develop over time.
Our tasting notes are: Colour – Pale gold | Nose – Mellow vanilla, fruity, vibrant and buttery with citrus touches and a hint of pepper from the wood | Palate – Vanilla mixed with orchard fruits like green apples, then peppercorns, lingering with a long finish.
