Blackadder Millstone Dutch Single Malt Oloroso

This Blackadder bottling showcases the unique Millstone single malt from Zuidam Distillers, matured in Oloroso sherry casks. The result is a vibrant spirit, redolent with dried fruits and baking spices. A velvety texture coats the palate, delivering waves of dark cherry, fig, and a subtle nuttiness, underpinned by a warming cinnamon spice. The finish is long and dry, leaving a lingering warmth and a whisper of sherry-soaked raisins.

The rich Oloroso sherry influence in this Dutch single malt calls for bold pairings. First, consider aged Gouda; its nutty and caramel notes echo the whisky's profile, creating a harmonious symphony of flavors on the palate. Alternatively, venture into a dark chocolate terrine with a hint of chili, where the spice cuts through the chocolate’s richness, mirroring the whisky's warm, spicy finish. The dark chocolate's bitterness plays counterpoint to the lingering sweetness of the sherry cask.
