Three Ships 21YR Milennium Single Malt

On the eve of the millennium, Master Distiller Andy Watts had the vision and foresight to begin the creation of what would become the first-ever 21-year-old Three Ships Whisky. The liquid rested in ex-bourbon American Oak casks for 10 years, 300-litre hogsheads for five; then Oloroso casks, before finally back to aged ex-bourbon oak.

Nose: Nutmeg, roasted nuts, sherry sweetness, coffee, whole dried coriander, earthy with whiffs of sea breeze saltiness.

Palate: Warm with peppery, savoury aromas and lingering nutmeg and spice.

Finish: Salty with an impressive softness of spice and deilcate sweetness.
