River Pirate
Heavily Peated Single Malt
Cut Grass & Dry Prairie Hay
Bordeaux Sauternes Casks
Landlocked and lawless. A peated single malt raised in Bordeaux Sauternes casks and named for the Canadian tall tale of a busted prairie farmer who traded his plough for a pirate's flag. No ocean required.
The nose opens with campfire smoke and warm wood ash over honeyed apricot, orange marmalade and candied citrus. The creamy, Sauternes-sweet palate builds through dried apricot, sultanas and barley sugar with a curl of peat smoke, while cut grass and dry prairie hay lift the middle. It finishes long and gently smoky, with clover honey, toasted almond and a whisper of salt.
Featuring heavily distillery-smoked Washington peat, at a 54 ppm.
