This is the 6th in our Icons of Wales series and was launched on the 1st March 2019. This bottling commemorates the original Welsh Whisky distillery at Frongoch, near Bala, which closed over 100 years ago. It has a Peated Portwood finish and is bottled at 43%.
Tasting Notes
Nose:
A delicate smoky peat with vanilla, light red berries and salted caramel
Taste:
The earlier hints of smoke become more prevalent. Sweet smoky toffee/treacle notes, a trace of cracked black pepper, malted barley and the soft sweetness of fudge
Finish:
The smokiness slowly departs like morning mist, leaving a lingering delicate vanilla and wood spice final note
