Description

Shelter Point Cask Strength Whisky is doughy on the nose with a hint of orange cheddar, and creamy like clotted cream with a dab of strawberry jam. The gently toasted oak flavour is enhanced with dill and light sugars.

The palate is fruity with a bit of heat, although surprisingly smooth for a whisky of this strength and age. On the back end, the spices take over –  candied fennel, licorice, burnt demerara sugar and oily earthy tones.

The finish is light, fresh and sweet, drying as it fades.
