Pintail Auchroisk 15 Year Old Fondillon Cask Finish 5cl 2008

54.3% abv

Vol- 5cl

This unique single malt, distilled and filled at Auchroisk distillery in 2008, was matured for many years in a refill ex-Bourbon hogshead and then finished in a century-old Spanish oak cask, which previously held the rare and ancient sweet wine of the Alicante region – Fondillion. The resulting whisky carries notes of dried fruit, toasted oak, turmeric spice and orange peel.

Fondillion is regarded as a luxury sweet wine enjoyed by Spanish royalty since the fifteenth century and produced solely in the Alicante region on hills overlooking the Mediterranean sea. It gets its caramel, hazelnut, dried orange peel and ripe fig.

TASTING NOTES
NOSE Dried fruits, roasted hazelnuts, turmeric spice, dark honey and polished oak.
PALATE Fresh and zesty ripe fruits, toasted cereals, chilli-coated nuts, exotic spices and hints of coffee.
FINISH Spicy nuttiness, currants, ginger, ripe figs and notes of dried orange peel.

Only 230 bottles were produced.

Good stock

Pintail was first bottled in 1931 as Matthew Gloag & Son’s house brand of Dry Sherry and soon won international awards for its superior quality. It was first featured in Tatler magazine in 1935 – “You cannot be wrong in offering a glass of ‘Pintail’ to your guest for the little “11 o’clock” and before or after meals”. The downturn in Sherry consumption in the latter half of the 20th century signalled the end for the brand, until... The Whisky Cellar acquired the rights in 2021, lining it up once again with its old ‘Brig O’ Perth’ stablemate.
