Re-charred hogshead
A 16-year-old Croftengea bottled by Thompson Bros in November 2022 at 50% ABV. The spirit was filled into casks on 8 April 2006 and comes from two hogsheads, one of them re-charred, in an edition of 479 bottles. The pairing of a refill cask and a re-charred cask gives a more intense peaty, earthy character. The nose is autumnal, with lemon peel, wood smoke, and dried cinnamon and mint leaf. The palate brings pan-fried pineapple in butter, damp leaves, fresh tobacco, lemon curd and smoke. The finish is long, soft and smoky, with vegetal notes.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
