Morris Rutherglen Smoked Muscat Barrel Australian Single Malt Whisky 700ml (ABV 48.3%)

Introduction

This Smoked Muscat expression brings together three unique elements; Single Malt Whisky, award-winning fortified Muscat barrels, and heavily-charred oak, to create a whisky with unrivalled complexity and unique depth of character.

The resulting whisky is the perfect marriage of dry-biscuit maltiness, rich luscious raisin fruits, soft wood-aged characters and a lingering subtle smokiness.

Nose – A combination of clean white smoke mingling with raisin fruits and blackberry jam initially. The smoke dissipates to release the rich and complex Morris Muscat characters.

Palate – Hints of charred pineapple with a light dusting of smoked paprika. Dark sugars appear without any cloying character, followed by the elegant acidity of crisp apple which evolves leaving a dry finish on the palate.

Finish – The flavours shift gear on the palate leaving you feeling like youve just experienced chili infused dark chocolate, dipped in subtle smoked apple jam.
