Pintail Glenlossie 14 Year Old Picolit Wine Cask Finished Scotch Whisky

The Pintail brand was originally established by Matthew Gloag and Sons in the 1930's for bottling their dry sherries. After the trademark was allowed to lapse it was picked up by Keith Bonnington (Keeper of the Quaich and owner of The Whisky Cellars Independent Bottlers) to create a range of spirits and wines. With a focus on unusual bottlings, and whiskies finished in rare (and often sweet) wine casks, the Pintail range is built around a focus on extremely limited and desirable bottlings. 

"Purveyors of Precious Wines & Spirits" is the tagline, with a focus on "precious"!

The Pintail Glenlossie 14 Year Old Tokaji Aszu cask finished scotch whisky was finished in a much-prized Picolit wine cask from Friuli-Venezia Giulia in the North-East of Italy. A potential first in whisky finishing. Expect a grassy malt nose, with a silky & buttery texture. Flavours of cedar wood, crisp apples, tropical fruits and a raisiny-wine note are perfectly balanced. A very long finish!

700ml. 55.1% ABV.
