Private Cask Offer

This is the most famous sherry cask style used in whiskey today. These semi-dry sherry casks are not as dry as their Fino counterpoints and famously imbue flavours of dried fruits, sultanas and raisins, with a small amount of nuttiness. Next to bourbon barrels, these are the second most famous whiskey casks in the whiskey world.

These casks are from the Sicilian city of Marsala in Italy, where this famous fortified wine is produced. Marsala casks offer a lighter impact compared to some other fortified alternatives, but the subtlety offers a juicy bouquet of citrus and tropical fruits to enjoy. Fantastic option for long maturations.

Port is the traditional fortified wine from Portugal. Made exclusively in the Northern valleys of the country, Port casks have a fantastically fruity and vibrant bouquet that imbues brilliantly on maturing spirit.

Fino sherry is a dry style of Spanish sherry, a fortified wine from Spain. Fino casks are rare sherry casks for whiskey production and offer an incredibly interesting maturation profile.

This is a fortified wine from the Portuguese island of Madeira, off the West Coast of Morocco. These sweet wine casks produce a subtly sweet profile that pairs brilliantly with single pot still whiskey, offering an abundance of fruit to the profile.

Moscatel is a naturally sweet dessert wine from Portugal that is fortified after fermentation, in a similar way to Pedro Ximenez Sherry. These produce deep full bodied, sweet fruit notes in the cask. Moscatel is the original European fortified wine, made with at least 85% Moscatel de Alejandria grape varietal.

Rum barrels deliver a subtle, yet fantastic sweetness to whiskey spirit. These casks started their lives as ex-bourbon barrels before being used to mature tropical rums.

Bourbon barrels are the backbone of the global whiskey industry. They are the basis for the maturation of most Irish whiskeys.
