The Lakes Single Malt Whiskymakers Edition: Colheita Port Cask Whisky 70cl

The Whiskymaker’s Editions are exceptional diversions from the Sherry-led house style; one-off releases showcasing the sense of adventure of their whiskymaker – Dhavall Gandhi – in cask selection, maturation and blending.

Each Edition is an expression of creative freedom; the product of a playground where instinct, experience and inspiration roam free, coming together to realise their intrinsic objective – the creation of outstanding flavours.

Colheita (Col-yate-a) means “harvest”, referring to the exclusive use of Grapes from a single crop to create a vintage Tawny Port.

In this Edition, the whiskymaker’s cask and maturation expertise brings Colheita Port into the frame, in combination with a small proportion of Bourbon Barrels.

The nose is vibrant and fruity with hints of Plums, Spiced Pickled Cherries and Candied Orange; the palate is complex with notes of Prunes, Stewed Plums and warming Cinnamon with a lasting finish.

Enjoy as you please. Try adding a few drops of water to open up the flavours.
