The Bruichladdich Sherry Editions are interesting experiments in which the same whisky is finished in different sherry casks for two years.
For the 2008 edition they selected an Oloroso and a Manzanilla cask. Last year it was a Fino cask and a Pedro Ximénez cask from the Bodegas Fernando de Castilla (Ximinez is not exactly a misprint, but it’s not the common spelling either). I’m not sure if they have much more cask types to choose from, maybe a Palo Cortado or an Amontillado?
I was especially interested in the PX cask, as it has proven to get nice results. It’s the most luxurious and sticky kind of sherry.
70cl, 46%.
