Keith Bonnington has over two decades of experience in the whisky industry, including eleven years at Edrington (owners of Macallan et al). He was made Keeper of the Quaich in 2013 and founded The Whisky Cellar in 2016, the eponymous label for his primary collection of independent whiskies. 'Pintail' is an extension of that, but its focus is slightly broader, with vintage dated releases of diverse liquids including whisky, sherry and port. Another addition to that list is this blended malt. Although the components aren't stated, we do know that it was drawn from an oloroso sherry puncheon at natural strength. According to Bonnington, expect aromas and flavours of dark orchard fruits, cinnamon, star anise, dark chocolate, mocha, raisins, malt loaf plus a touch of eucalyptus. 305 bottles at 57.1% Alc./Vol. are on offer. Non chill filtered.
