Elsburn The Journey 12 yo

Special features: The 12-year-old Elsburn The Journey is the first version with an age statement, setting a new standard for the series. The whisky matured exclusively in first-fill wine casks, including sherry, port, Marsala, and Málaga casks, giving it exceptional depth and complexity. At 46% ABV, the single malt presents itself at a robust drinking strength that perfectly showcases the character of the highest mountains in northern Germany. The limited edition consists of 1,000 bottles and is delivered in a luxurious wooden box.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Rich aromas of dark berries, chocolate and spices, underlined by sweet notes from the wine and sherry casks.
• Palate: Full-bodied with notes of dried fruits, nuts and a subtle spice reminiscent of Marsala and port wine.
• Finish: Long-lasting, warm and complex with a hint of dark chocolate and a subtle oak finish.

Distillery/Bottler: The Hercynian Distilling Co., with its Hammerschmiede distillery in the Harz Mountains, is known for its meticulous craftsmanship and the production of characterful single malts. The region's rugged natural surroundings and cool mountain winds contribute significantly to the maturation process. Elsburn stands for authentic, handcrafted whiskies from Germany, which are increasingly gaining international recognition.
