About this bottle

APEX Single Cask STR

This single malt whisky was aged in a Red Wine STR cask.
The STR process was pioneered by the late Dr. Jim Swan, one of the most known whisky experts. STR stands for Shaving, Toasting, and Re-charring the cask, giving the whisky notes of toasted oak and red fruits.

Because the cask is a red wine barrel that has gone through STR, you likely get a mix of red fruit notes + toasted / charred oak.

  • Aroma (Nose): Molasses, a hint of thyme, warm wild berry jam. 

  • Palate (Taste): Rich flavors of hard candy and mincemeat, plus toasted oak. Finish: Warm spice mix (cloves, liquorice), dried dark plums.

  • Finish: Warm spice mix (cloves, liquorice), dried dark plums.
  • ABV: 57.8% for this expression.

Single barrel means this was bottled from one cask rather than blended, so the proof and the character belong to that barrel alone. How to read a single barrel label
