Barbados rum finish
This is a bourbon from Hillrock Estate Distillery in New York, in a 75cl bottle. It is aged by the solera method, which the distillery describes as a first for American whiskey. Whiskey is drawn from the lowest tier of a pyramid of barrels and replaced with new spirit in the top tier, so no barrel is ever emptied. After ageing in American oak and Oloroso casks in the solera, the bourbon is finished in rum casks. The notes describe coconut and vanilla bean with brown sugar and cinnamon, then sugar wafers and taffy. Honeysuckle, toasted coconut and clove follow, with a savoury rum character lingering.

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.
