Official tasting notes.
Nose: The nose opens with the slightest hint of apricot, coconut and plum, going on to reveal an intermingling of golden syrup and plum pudding warmed by the spicy hint of cloves.
Palate: Subdued, mouth filling with orange marmalade overtones with the characteristic rich nougat sweetness and well-balanced oak.
Finish: Rounded, well finished and lingering to the very end.

Bottling Notes
Owners and distillers of Bakery Hill Distillery (David and Andrew Baker) were rummaging around their bond store when they came across a small batch, single-barrel of Double Wood Cask Strength whisky and in their infinite wisdom, sampled it and found it stunning, ready for bottling and release.
This rare, limited-edition version of the distillery’s Double Wood is at cask strength drawn directly from the cask, and delivered at 60.2% ABV.
The spirit is initially matured for up to 7 years in American Oak Ex-Bourbon barrels from Jack Daniels, before being transferred to a virgin French Oak ex-wine barrel, shaved back to bare wood, and then given a light toast to highlight the oak itself. The interplay between both American and French Oak styles ensures a unique richness of flavour alongside fresh vibrancy of the spirit.
