Knappogue Castle 12 Years Marsala Cask Finish is an Irish single malt made from Bushmills distillate, bottled at 46% in a 70cl bottle. It is a limited release of 1,200 bottles. The whisky was matured entirely in ex-bourbon casks, then finished in Marco De Bartoli Marsala wine casks, which add a layer of fruit and a soft sweetness. It is triple distilled. The nose brings soft vanilla, dried fruit, orange zest and a light Marsala sweetness. The palate is creamy, with honey, peach, raisins and subtle spice, balanced between sweet and dry. The finish is warm and medium-long, with oak and Marsala.

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.
