Pig's Nose Blended Scotch Whisky 70 cl

Product Information

Some "premium" whiskeys really are quite terrible, while some mass market products are good enough to pour into a decanter and serve to the Duke of Edinburgh. This allows the whisky to have a balanced combination between sweetness and smokiness without coming across as overly aggressive on either front. Pig’s Nose whisky is a unique and flavorful whiskey brand, distilled in Scotland and distributed around the world. The palate delivers more of that rich, creamy butterscotch, with the attendant toasty, dry wood from the nose. Alle whiskykomponenterne lagres på first-fill bourbonfade, så man kan forvente karamel og vanilje i smagen.

Det skyldes at den er utroligt blød og rund, og da man i Skotland har en talemåde der lyder ”as smooth as a pig’s nose”, har man det helt ideelle navn.Produced in specially selected first-fill oak casks, this is a smooth blended scotch that comes from blending Speyside, Islay and Lowland malts with gentle grain whiskies and aging for five years. The key to Pigs Nose Whiskey’s success is its unique blend of malts from Speyside, Highlands, Islay and Lowlands whiskeys. The mash liquefies saccharides present in malted barley, creating a liquid known as “wort” that contains much of what will eventually become alcohol. The first step in the distillation process for making Pig’s Nose Whiskey is milling, which is when malted barley grains are passed between steel rollers so they can be crushed into small bits and flakes.

It’s made up of Invergordon grain whisky as well as Speyside, Lowland and Islay malts – all of which have been aged for at least five years. The drink also managed to obtain a score of 97 points out of 100 at another prestigious rating system – an impressive accomplishment! The brand was created in 1993 by the independent bottler Richard Paterson, who assembled casks to give it a special aroma and taste. In the age of George Osborne (speaking of pig noses), that’s just a bit more than a loaf of bread or the bus fare to the job centre.
