Single Cask Collection London Dry Gin Brandy Cask Finished
(0.7l, 52.5%)
A mysterious Gin rescued by five friends in the mountains of Austria.
We’ve sung the praises of independent bottlers before. They find limited editions and wayward barrel lots of fine Spirits that might normally find their way in to blends and mass-produced, characterless dreck and issue them as one-offs. It can be brilliant stuff. And more of those independent bottlers are in Scotland. But Single Cask Collection is a team of five friends doing the same thing from their home base in Austria with a love of fine Spirits in their heart and a bit of a sense of humor to boot.
The vast majority of Spirits saved by the good fellows at Single Cask Collection are Scottish Single Malts. But this time they brought us something different — a barrel-aged Gin. But not “just” a barrel-aged Gin. It’s a lovely London Dry style Gin that is the fourth Spirit to be aged in the barrel. Ex-Bourbon casks are used first for aging Sherry. Then those casks are used again to gently age Brandy de Jerez. Then those casks are used to age this limited edition Gin. The Single Cask Collection has a very limited number of these little mysterious Gin gems available at 52.5% ABV, so get one while you can.
Smartass corner:
Brandy de Jerez is a fine brandy from the Andalusia region of Spain, usually aged in the Solera method. It is sometimes sold as is, but is more often used as the fortifying agent in traditional Spanish Sherries.

Few Gin Distillers Make Their Own Alcohol. Gin usually starts with neutral spirit: A commodity that in distillers buy in bulk. It’s what the distiller does with this commodity in the flavour-infusing process that makes each Gin different.
Tasting Notes
Appearance / Color
Champaign Gold
Nose / Aroma / Smell
The aromas are classic London Dry — notes of coriander, pine, black pepper — but with pronounced influences of citrus zest and exotic fruits.
Flavor / Taste / Palate
The flavor profile is complex and lightly sweet, dancing between Gin, ripe fruits, wood, and back again.
Finish
The finish is very long for a Gin with a light drying on the back palate.
