NESTVILLE WHISKY

MASTER BLENDER 2018 46 %

Nestville Whisky Master Blender 2018 is a special limited edition 9-year-old blended whisky. In order to achieve the perfect harmony of flavour for this whisky, we blended whisky from four selected oak barrels from our archive reserves filled for ageing at the end of 2008 and in 2009. Each bottle is an original with a hand-written serial number, barrel number from which it was drawn, date of filling of the barrel, date of bottling and the signature of chief technician Ing. Lucia Jakubíková PhD., who is responsible for creating this unique whisky. The whisky was selected by an expert panel comprising recognised whisky experts as well as author of the world-famous book Whisky Bible Jim Murray, whose signature can also be found on each bottle. Only 1475 bottles of this limited edition Master Blender 2018 with an ABV of 46% were placed on the market.
The 2008 vintage was represented by grain whisky with a high proportion of wheat and rye and originally matured in 700-litre barrels made of French oak and used sherry casks. The 2009, which we used in this blended whisky, had added corn as an ingredient and was matured in 200-litre barrels made of American white oak. The malt used in both vintages was lightly smoked using hardwood smoke and dried at higher temperatures, causing its partial caramelisation. We allowed part of the blend to mature before the end of the process in a barrel originally used for Tokaji wine, which lent the whisky a delicate, fruity charm and highlighted its sweetness.
Nestville Whisky Master Blender is characterised by its full flavour and is slightly spicy, with a sweet and fruity undertone and aroma of vanilla.
