The Series<\/h2>\r\n

The series consists of 6 bottlings, all released at cask strength and each expressing an individual aspect of our approach to whisky maturation and cask finishes.\u00a0 They are all 700ml bottles<\/p>\r\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\r\n

They include virgin oak, ex-bourbon cask, Madeira cask, port casks and sherry casks\u00a0 in various combinations to create what we believe to be some very interesting whiskies.<\/p>\r\n

The Founders’ Casks Expression 1 Madeira<\/h2>\r\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\r\n

Expression 1 of the Founders\u2019 Casks is initially matured in virgin American oak\u00a0 first fill ex-bourbon casks from the USA.\u00a0 After its initial ageing of almost 5 years the whisky is then finished in carefully hand-picked Madeira wine casks.<\/p>\r\n

Bottled at cask strength (53.4% ABV) and non-chill filtered for purity of flavour, this whisky derives its unique palate from thick and velvety Portuguese wine.<\/p>\r\n

Tasting Notes<\/h2>\r\n

We drew samples of this The Founders’ Casks Expression 1 and through a panel of 12 whisky enthusiasts, we created these collective tastings notes.<\/p>\r\n

The nose is fruity, laced with raisins and sultanas on a bed of vanilla and cream fudge. A final hint of citrus peels makes way for a smooth and honey-rich palate, complete with green apples, peaches and a viscous underflow of caramel, cream and malted milk biscuits. The finish is light and quick \u2013 a tropical flourish that gives way to dried stone fruits.<\/p>\r\n
