London's Bimber Distillery today announced that it has partnered with the iconic department store Fortnum & Mason to release an upcoming exclusive single cask, single malt London whisky that has been finished in a Spanish fino sherry butt. Originally matured for over four years in American oak ex-bourbon casks, the whisky was transferred for an additional maturation in a fino sherry butt sourced from Jerez-based Bodegas Tradición who are dedicated exclusively to the elaboration and ageing of very old sherry wines. The resulting single malt offers notes of vivid fruitiness alongside feisty piquancy, a nutty edge and ripe salinity. The release of 857 bottles at 51% ABV will be available from Friday 11th February in Fortnum & Mason's Piccadilly-based store and via the retailer's website.
The single cask release was crafted to Bimber's exacting standards. The spirit was produced from the distillery's single farm barley and malted on a dedicated floor at Warminster Maltings, before being fermented for seven days in bespoke on-site constructed American oak washbacks. Distillation took place in Bimber's customised stills which possess an increased copper surface area, resulting in a light, fruit-forward, layered new make spirit.
