The Naked Malt (formerly Naked Grouse)
Regular price $54.00
Naked Grouse Blended Malt first began rolling out in 2017 to select European markets. A 100% Malt Blend - this whisky features single malts from Glenturret, Glenrothes, Highland Park and Macallan. Each was aged in a combination of first and second-fill American and European oak before marrying all the batches together. The blend is then finished in first-fill oloroso sherry butts for an additional six months. Full transparency - It is chill-filtered.
Nose: Starts with a fistful of dried fruits with marzipan. This quickly develops into a mix of malt, vanilla and milk with plums. Even a hint of toffee rises from the back.
Palate: A hint of smoke, dark honey, prominent sherry influence with hints of toffee. Back of the palate finds raspberry jam, spices and buttery caramel. Oak flavours pepper the experience.
Finish: fruity and tangy finish. Oak, dark orange chocolate and oil.
