The Magnificent Seven (Chief's Son Distillery)

Regular price $195.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

The follow-up to The Joy of Six, we have taken two small format casks matured for 6 years and 6 months in French Oak Apera casks and then decanted them into fresh 1st Fill French Oak Apera casks for a secondary 6 month maturation.

We have then married together the two casks to create the distillery's first double-matured whisky, aged for a total of 7 years.

This marriage has then been finished for 7 months in an ex-Rye Whiskey American Oak cask that has barrel-aged Canadian Maple Syrup; another commercial first for the distillery.

Bottle Size: 500ml

ABV: 58% 

Outturn: 90 bottles

Distillery Tasting Notes

Nose: Dark rum, sweet tobacco, prunes and raisins, caramel and nutty

Palate: Burnt oak, dark maple, molasses and coffee, really yum

Finish: Mammoth and all things rich!

Our Tasting Notes

Nose: Candied walnuts; toasted oak; maple syrup; cinnamon scrolls and caramelised citrus peel

Palate: A great balance of sweetness, nuttiness and oakiness that echoes the nose with an added layer of exotic, toasted African spices, all wrapped up in a viscous mouthfeel

Finish: Long, lip-smacking maple syrup, a hint of butter menthol and the warming, smoky embers of a dying winter's fire
