Speyburn Hopkins Reserve (1L, 46%)
$29.00
Hopkins Reserve from Speyburn was created as a tribute to John Hopkins, founder of the distillery. The single malt was aged in American oak bourbon casks which had also previously held peated whisky, imparting a subtle smokiness. The whisky endeavours to celebrate all things Speyside, and has been made using fresh spring water from the Granty Burn. The one litre bottle was released for the Travel Retail market.
Tasting Note
Nose: Very subtle aromas of peat smoke tease out candied citrus fruit, with sweet butterscotch, vanilla and baking spice.
Palate: Fruity and sweet, with crisp toffee apple, cereal notes and lemon peel underpinned by a gentle smokiness.
Finish: Citrus zest and subtle hints of spice linger on the finish.
