Product Description
An enigmatic alchemy which relies on nature, craftsmanship and the gentle passing of time. What happens inside each cask, under the darkness of the warehouse remains a mystery. Black Art 11 continues that elusive mastery. Only Head Distiller Adam Hannett knows
what has gone into crafting the precious 24-year-old single malt. The barley and cask type remain a mystery, with the final recipe undisclosed.
NOSE
Dried fruits, leather and a hint of citrus immediately open on the nose, followed by a fresh sea breeze. Sweet fruit and floral notes come forward, with poached pear, black cherry, and sweet mango. The complexity of the single malt is apparent as the aromas continue to open, with cedar and mellow oak complemented with butterscotch, praline, honey, and a hint of cinnamon.
PALATE
Dates, raisins, barley sugar, leather and oak open on the palate, followed by butterscotch sweetness, praline and hints of coconut and fresh citrus. Sweet apple and pear are married with toasted oak, warming wood spice, dark plums and marzipan, with layers of depth opening with each sip.
FINISH
Oak and dried fruit close out this dram, with holiday cake notes of figs, marzipan, and lingering honey adding to the beautifully rounded finish.
