This is the inaugural release from the Helden Distillery and the first in their Innovate Range, which seeks to "accelerate" aging and bring products to market while their traditional whisky matures in cask. This small batch, single malt spirit is made from specially roasted and South African malts, and then distilled in a combination pot and column still. It is matured in 100-litre containers with Hickory wood added for further flavour development. Only 143 bottles were produced. Non-chillfiltered, naturally coloured and bottled at 46%. (Bottle size 500ml)
Nose: Delightfully lively pepper and fruit balanced over a light malty nutty sweetness.
Palate: A distinctly creamy body filled with bittersweet spice.
Finish: A lingering round and warm finish.
