Joadja Bourbon Single Malt Whisky Cask Strength 500ml
Nose: Sweet and clean with lemon peel, ‘Wrigley’s’ juicy-fruit chewing gum and vanilla butter-biscuits. Delicate honeycomb joins the aromatic soirée with the delicious scent of gardenias rounding off the nosing.
Palate: Vanilla milkshake and peach flesh accompanies the lemon peel from the nosing, where spice emerges as the palate heats up bringing nutmeg and cloves.
Finish: Warm and drying turning quite tart (in a good way). Gardenia flowers persist giving the whisky a beautifully fragrant crescendo.
Bottling notes: Here’s Joadja’s very first bourbon cask release. A tour de force in their whisky-making journey as it’s also their inaugural paddock to bottle release, meaning they have grown their own barely on site that was used for the production of the spirit, making this one hell of a rare expression. It’s a vatting of 2 American Oak ex-bourbon casks that yielded 650 x 500ml bottles and 100 x 200ml bottles.
Known for their premium sherry cask whisky, when the distillery told us they were going all in with a bourbon cask release, we couldn’t wait for the results, and they are nothing short of stunning. Having sampled it directly from the cask and after bottling, it’s a wonderful bourbon cask expression offering vanilla, fresh honey-comb, lemon and spice.
