Three Ships Whisky 11YO Single Malt Shiraz Cask Finish
Three Ships Whisky 11YO Single Malt Shiraz Cask Finish
The special release Three Ships Whisky 11-Year-Old Single Malt Shiraz Cask Finish is smooth and complex, drawing signature spices and fruity aromas from the seasoned Shiraz casks to balance and round off the peaty character of the single malt.
Crafting & Maturation
The single malt spirit was first matured in American Oak barrels for eight years before being finished in seasoned Shiraz oak casks for three years. The warm South African climate accelerates maturation, softening the whisky at an earlier age.
