The 16th release from this years winner of World\'s Best Independent Bottler. If you want boring whisky then pass on the Heart Cut - they curate some funky conversation starting whiskies - you will love, hate or be left dumbfounded by some of their whiskies but to make the \'cut\' they all have to be interesting.

Notes from The Heart Cut:

This is a 100% rye whisky finished for just over 2 years in a 45-year-old ex-Solera Oloroso Sherry cask from a bodega in Sanlcar de Barrameda.

This is coastal sherry territory, where the Atlantic winds give the wine a signature minerality. That maritime character has transferred beautifully into the whisky, melding with the Oloroso toffee/nuttiness to create an insane amount of complexity and richness.

Tastes Like:

Youre wrapped in warmth from the first nose of this whisky salted caramel melts into golden honeycomb and a whisper of honeysuckle. On the palate, that saline-sweet caramel deepens, layered with vanilla ice cream and overripe apricot, before thickening into pecan pie richness. Banana chips bring a crisp, tropical chew; theres also nostalgic notes of warm waffles with maple syrup. To finish, a playful fizz of kola cubes is grounded by toasted walnuts, oak sawdust, and a flicker of smoked Maldon sea salt.
