Penderyn Madeira Finish is a unique single malt whisky from Wales. Known for their innovative spirit, Penderyn takes their whisky on a journey beyond its initial maturation. After spending time in traditional bourbon barrels, it receives a finishing touch in ex-Madeira wine casks. This unique process infuses the whisky with intriguing notes, creating a complex and flavorful dram.

Description

The first sip of Penderyn Madeira Finish is a revelation. The initial wave of flavor is a delightful interplay between the familiar and the surprising. The vanilla and caramel notes, hallmarks of bourbon maturation, greet you first, providing a comforting warmth on the tongue. But then, the Madeira influence unfolds, adding a layer of unexpected complexity. Hints of orange and lemon, detected on the nose, translate beautifully onto the palate, offering a burst of juicy citrus. The honey sweetness remains, but it takes on a new dimension, perhaps with a touch of dried fruit character from the Madeira wine casks. As you savor the sip, a hint of spice emerges, a gentle warmth that lingers on the palate. This isn’t an overpowering spiciness, but rather a subtle nudge towards the Madeira’s unique profile.

The finish of Penderyn Madeira Finish is a testament to the balanced nature of this unique whisky. The sweetness slowly fades, leaving behind a lingering touch of citrus and a hint of oaky dryness. The subtle spice might linger for a moment, a final reminder of the Madeira’s influence. Unlike some whiskies that leave a heavy or cloying aftertaste, the Penderyn Madeira Finish finishes clean and refreshing. It’s a delightful departure from the norm, a perfect ending to a flavor journey that bridges continents and traditions.
