Milroy's of Soho has released the Soho Selection . For this particular series, Milroy's are looking for the more unusual, more modern expressions that show good whisky can come at any age.
This 14 year old expression was distilled by Coal Ila and matured in first-fill Palo Cortado octave, re-racked from a refill hogshead in June 2021 at 53.8% ABV. There are only 60 bottles in this release.
Nose: Caol Ila on steroids with big Islay peat, fruit pastilles (orange and pineapple) and maple bacon pancakes.
Palate: Thick and oily with caramelised orange peel, honey glazed ham and cloves. Still big peat.
Finish: Long and chewy – as if still chewing a ‘Chewit’, hints of Christingle Orange and a little allspice.
Age: 14 years old
Strength: 53.8% abv
High Proof | Non-Chill Filtered | No Colouring Added
