Brave New Spirits
Highland Shepherd Single Malt Scotch Whisky
The Scotch Whisky Masters - Gold
2022
Highland Shepherd Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a refined offering from Brave New Spirits, crafted as an homage to Scotland's pastoral heritage. This Highland single malt is sourced from a single distillery and aged in bourbon oak casks for at least six years, achieving a harmonious balance of flavors before being bottled at 46% ABV.
On the nose, it reveals vibrant notes of zesty orange marmalade, apple peel, digestive biscuits, and dried grass. The palate unfolds with warm cinnamon, tart fruits, freshly cut hay, and creamy vanilla-rich fudge. The finish is smooth and lingering, with delicate hints of honey and mixed peels.
This whisky encapsulates the essence of Highland craftsmanship, delivering a delightful and memorable drinking experience.
