Auchroisk Thunderstruck 2017 7 Year Old, Uncharted Whisky
The Tasting Notes
An un-ashamed sherry bomb. Oloroso sherry leaps out the glass chased by the cask strength tingle. Deep sticky toffee, Nutellla, brown sugar, leather and cigar box.
Mature at first; new leather, Christmas pudding and vanilla ice cream. A touch of water brings the caramel and toffee chocolate box to life.
Long tingling spice, chocolate and cinnamon Danish pastries.
Details
This single malt is an unapologetic juggernaut. A huge sherry cask influence, absolutely ferocious cask strength, bottled young and un-chill filtered. This spirit was distilled only 7 years ago but it tastes exponentially better than many much older whiskies Dana and Jack have tried. The oloroso sherry cask has imparted mega colour on the liquid, it is among the darkest and most flavour packed cask samples they have ever seen- there’s simply no substitute for first fill oloroso sherry cask.
Un-chill filtered and natural colour
