Speyside 12 Year Old Corporal Wojtek Vol. 2 Pedro Ximénez Barriques

About

This 12-year-old Speyside Single Malt from Precious Liquors' Corporal Wojtek series is a modern and refined whisky finished in Pedro Ximénez barriques. The bottling honours the legendary bear Wojtek, who served as an official member of the Polish army during World War II. A whisky of character and elegance, bottled at a robust 50.5% ABV. The nose reveals an appealing blend of redcurrants, cherry notes and marmalade, complemented by hints of walnut and subtle tobacco. On the palate, the sweet, fruity character shines through with plums, apples and honey, gradually transitioning to spices like clove and nutmeg. Dark chocolate, roasted walnuts and leather provide depth, with an engaging bittersweet quality. The finish is medium-length, featuring leafy notes, green oak and coffee. This whisky's contemporary style and lively character make it an intriguing choice for enthusiasts seeking a tangy, refined dram with excellent balance between fruit and spice.
