Bain's Founders Collection Whisky 18 Year Old Fino Cask Finish

Crafting & Maturation

This 18-year-old single grain whisky started its life as Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky and spent an additional 10 years maturing in American oak before finished for three years in Fino sherry casks. 

Fino is the lightest and driest of all the sherries. With only a few Fino finishes available, and traditionally found in malt whisky, this exceptional whisky is an innovation for grain whiskies. The Fino's signature nuttiness blends seamlessly with the sweet and spicy depth of flavour of the whisky.
