Nose: There is a light coastal salinity from the Manzanilla which is also influenced by the Menai Straits, floral chamomile notes,
subtle hints of green apples with some light bread-dough notes.
Palate: Green apples is followed from the nose onto the palate with some of the saline character. Toasted almonds and raisins
reminiscent of Welsh bara brith.
Finish: A gentle nuttiness and a soft spice to finish, with a lingering long mouthfeel.
ABV: 46%
Pairing Suggestions
Manzanilla whisky is a delicate balance of salinity, fruit, and its herbal notes makes it versatile for pairing:
Seafood: Such as oysters, salmon or sushi.
Soft Cheeses: Brie, Camembert, or other mild, creamy cheeses that allow the whiskies flavours to shine.
Nuts and Olives: Almonds, cashews, or a mix of green and black olives echo the whisky’s nutty and briny notes.
