john – 16Yr – grain – First fill px Sherry CASK

This 16 year old Ayrshire single grain whisky comes from the Girvan distillery, matured in a first fill PX sherry cask. One of two casks, this is the sister to Paul, same grain whisky but matured in a first fill oloroso sherry cask. Very similar, but very different!

 

What is the Uncharted Syndicate?

The Uncharted Whisky Syndicate is a community of whisky lovers. 

Here at Uncharted we’ve curated a small collection of super interesting casks which anyone can buy a share in.  Just visit the Syndicate page and take a look at the rather cool cask shares we currently have available. 

One full share entitles the Syndicate member to 4 bottles from the cask when it’s bottled at it’s prearranged date. All share owners are allocated their bottles and offered a discount rate for any additional bottles they would like (depending on availability). After this, any remaining bottles are offered for sale to the rest of our lovely customers.

 

What’s in a name?

We have a lot of fun with the Uncharted Syndicate. We believe that if we’re not having fun, we’re doing it wrong!

All the syndicate casks have been named after our favourite rockstars! John found it’s name from our love of The Beatles – with two great casks of very similar (but very different!) whiskies… it was only natural to name them after Paul & John. There’s also a George and a Ringo but they won’t be ready for a few years yet!

As always…. Un-chill filtered. Natural colour.

Nose

Not your typical PX cask that’s for sure! Creamy and fragrant with aromas of sweet pastries, cut grass and toffee.

Palate

Cinnamon swirl danish pastries, chocolate, a touch of orange rind and bags of warming Christmas spice. 

Finish

Mature oak, woody spices and clove mingle with a touch of chocolate and sherried dried fruits.
