Isle of Lime Gotländsk Ek Nr. 01

Isle of Lime Gotländsk Ek Nr. 01, 6 YO, 46.1 %

Distilled 2016, bottled December 2022, and matured in tre 30 litre refill Swedish oak cask sourced from local Gothlandic oak. Bottled at cask strength. Limited to 192 bottles. See the official product page for more info.

Nose: We are in a world that's both dark and intriguing. Hints of red berries and dried fruits sit beneath the comforting shade of sun-warmed oak. With time oaky spices make their presence known, while the characteristic sweetness of virgin Swedish oak remains pleasantly subdued.

Taste: A full embrace that boasts a spicy demeanor, offset by a delightful fruitiness, striking a harmonious chord.

Finish: A medium long finish that leans towards the drier side. The duet of fruit and oaky spices continues its melody, eventually making way for a subtle nutty whisper.

Comment: Enjoyable!

Score 85/100
