Slyrs 12 Year Old Bavarian Malt Whisky

The name SLYRS is Gaelic and has Iro-Scottish roots. But SLYRS is Bavarian through and through. Because in the year 779 five monks from Ireland and Scotland founded a monastery in the Bavarian wasteland of Schliersee. Adalung, Hiltupalt, Kerpalt, Antonius and Otakir name this monastery SLYRS, correctly pronounced SCHLIERS.

The monastery SLYRS has given its name to the entire Schliersee region over the centuries - and 1220 years later also a very special Upper Bavarian single malt Whisky.

Since 1999, with the first distillation of Slyrs Whisky, Slyrs have been trailblazing the way for German Whisky producers.

The Slyrs 12 Year Old Single Malt Whisky has been maturing for a minimum of 12 years. Considering Slyrs angel share is around 5%, this malt has developed incredibly complexity. 

Nose: Confectionery aromas of vanilla, baking rum, orange peel, toffee, cinnamon, crème brûlée, dried apricot and honey

Palate: Sweet and gentle, with hints of vanilla, caramel, honey, fine notes of smoke and spicy oak

Finish: Wonderfully intense and lingering, particularly smooth

700ml. 43% ABV.
