A Whisky Club exclusive - a sequel to the earlier version that sold out in minutes. This whisky is aged in very old Oloroso Apera casks and the name of the whisky 'Rusted Casks' refers to the metal hoops that hold the casks together being rusted due to their age and being matured just feet away from the Ocean.
"At 51.7% ABV, bottled with no chill filtration or added colour, the initial sweetness of the Apera has toned down into custard-like creaminess and bunches of fruit. Expect waves of salted caramel drizzled over fresh raspberries and slow-stewed apple.
“Using a very old Oloroso cask is often hard because they can be a little drying at times, knowing that some of the depth and richness comes at a price. I had to preselect the Apera to be overly sweet, almost sickly, knowing what was coming,” says Rob. “I managed to grab just the right bitter sweet by doing this, tracking maturity week by week, but also managed to get the best parts of the Oloroso's fruit and oak profile in what I think is perfect balance.”
