New batch of single cask releases from Wemyss Malts

Wemyss Malts have just announced a new batch of single cask releases. The press release sent out today lists the following new whiskies:

• "Vintage Strawberry Punnet" - 1988 single cask from Invergordon, Single Grain
• "Sweet Peat Posy" - 1987 single cask from Bowmore, Islay
• "Aniseed Pastille" - 1996 single cask from Bowmore, Islay
• "Thread of Smoke" - 1991 single cask from Bunnahabhain, Islay
• "Smoke on the Water" - 1982 single cask from Caol Ila, Islay
• "Floral Trellis" - 1988 single cask from Tormore, Speyside
• "In a Bluebell Wood" - 1995 single cask from Glen Grant, Speyside
• "Summer Fruit Cup" - 1998 single cask from Auchentoshan, Lowlands
• "Cayenne Cocoa Bean" - 1997 single cask from Clynelish, Highlands
• "Bench with a Sea View" - 1997 single cask from Clynelish, Highlands
• "Peaches and Cream" - 1989 single cask from Glen Garioch, Highlands
• "Blackcurrant Coulis" - 1991 single cask from Blair Athol, Highlands

I do like the naming of their single cask releases. A bit similar to SMWS, fun and very often a good indicator to what you will experience from the whisky itself. Whisky Saga have recently tried a few single cask releases from Wemyss Malts.

We hope to see at least a few of these in Norway and Sweden later this Autumn, and we will be back with tasting notes as soon as we can track down any of these whiskies.

Sláinte! - Thomas
