Wolfburn 2017 7 Year Old Lightly Peated, Dramfool

Dramfool are delighted to have been given the privilege to partner with the Wolfburn team to select their first two single cask exclusives for the UK, and in such style. You can’t ask for much more than a peated and unpeated Wolfburn, both fully matured in first fill PX casks. Bottled as we always do at cask strength 56.5%, and as Wolfburn always do without chill filtration or colouring. Exclusively from cask #41, distilled in 2017 and bottled at 7 years old and one of only 324 bottles.

Tasting notes by Bruce with some help from ‘Wolfburn Willie’

Nose Neat: Peat smoke, black cherries, damsons, strawberries with black pepper, Elastoplast, sooty with Sellotape and blackcurrant.

Taste Neat: Extremely round and smooth, mouthcoating with peat smoke, black cherries, Ribena concentrate, dark chocolate and a sooty finish.

Nose Diluted: More peat smoke when diluted, with black cherries, damsons, strawberries with black pepper, Elastoplast, sooty with Sellotape and blackcurrant.

Taste Diluted: Sweeter with water, but a little less peat smoke. Silky smooth with black cherries and much more dark fruit flavours with a hint of liquorice.
