Special Features:

Pedro Ximénez sherry casks have a particularly strong influence on the eight-year maturation of Blackforest Wild Whisky Sherry Cask. Alongside sherry casks, new American white oak and Cognac casks are used. Wild sources its sherry casks directly from Jerez de la Frontera and fills them with whisky just a few days after they have been emptied. Their influence is evident in this bottling’s intense sweetness and fruity aromas.

The whisky is made with spring barley grown by Wild and water from its own spring. The barley is dried over a peat fire. Wild uses clarified mash and distils the single malt twice before cask maturation begins. It is bottled at 42% in a 0.5-litre bottle.

In 2019, Sherry Cask was named Germany’s best whisky at the Internationaler Spirituosen Wettbewerb. The orange label with its distinctive horned animal head also gives the bottle an unmistakable appearance.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: The nose is intensely fruity. Toffee and caramel stand out, accompanied by roasted coffee and a light pepper note.
  • Palate: The whisky is very soft and delicately sweet on the palate. Subtle malt notes combine with dark chocolate and pronounced grape flavours.
  • Finish: Sherry dominates the finish. Soft fruit notes recall grapes, complemented by a hint of raspberry.

Distillery/Bottler:

WILD Schwarzwaldbrennerei & Weingut GmbH is based in Gengenbach in the Black Forest. Its distilling tradition dates back to 1855. Traditional meadow orchards and predominantly home-grown fruit provide the foundation for its fruit spirits. Several generations of distillers work together in the family business, passing on their experience in fruit growing and distillation.

Wild brings this regional approach to its whisky too: its own barley and spring water connect the single malt to the place where it is made. Carefully selected sherry casks, refilled soon after being emptied, complement this work with a deliberate use of cask influence.
