Product Description
Kissed by cherry lips is a whisky that stands apart from our regular offerings of cask strength bottlings.
Bottled at a slightly reduced strength of 48% abv, this strength has been selected by our whisky team as being the optimal abv for this particular cask. The result is a full-flavoured Society single malt that offers an alternative way to explore our range.
Tasting Notes
The hush of a candlelit cellar curled around us with leather armchairs, aged oak, peach nectar and silk scarves perfumed with berries. Red fruit clung to old wood like a secret. The first kiss came warm: cherry-laced dark chocolate, coffee grounds and duck in plum sauce. It was heady, rich and plush with velvet tannins. Our second sip was softer, a smooch of fresh fig, balsamic and spice. With water, the nose opened further as glacé cherries, orange oil, liquorice and sticky toffee pudding ice cream combined. Our encounter finished on a teasing flourish, cherry sweeties melting into salted caramel and cocoa, leaving just a trace of ginger and cloves on the palate.
