Ex-Bourbon Oak Cask Batch no. 4
No. of bottles 7000
70CL / 51.2% abv
This single malt whisky has been crafted from a vatting of the distillery’s oldest 1st fill American Oak ex-bourbon casks.
The expression has been crafted to Bimber’s rigorous standards. The spirit was produced from the distillery’s single farm barley and malted on a dedicated floor at Warminster Maltings before being fermented for seven days in bespoke, on-site constructed American oak washbacks. Distillation took place in Bimber’s customised alembic pot stills which possess an increased copper surface area, and produces a fruit-forward, textural and layered new make spirit.
Following maturation, each cask was disgorged into the distillery’s in-house constructed American oak marrying vat for a period of resting. During this resting cycle the complexities of each individual cask mingle, creating an ensemble which possesses balance and depth whilst retaining the character of Bimber’s distinctive spirit.
