Black Bull 30
Lot number: 002012
Winning bid: £65
This special blend is a marriage of the finest single malt and single grain whiskies produced in Scotland. The whiskies were vatted together in the 1970s, just after distillation, and matured in sherry casks for a minimum of 30 years, resulting in this deluxe premium rare blend.
Black Bull contains 50% malt whisky and 50% grain whisky and has not been chill-filtered or coloured -- it is completely natural.
Tasting Notes
| Colour: | Chestnut |
| Nose: | Initially chocolate then a hint of turkish delights, stewed rhubarb & lime pickle. With time becomes dark cherries. |
| Flavour: | Rich sherry notes. A big dram but also gentle at the same time. Again, more chocolate notes and some red fruits. |
| Finish: | A cherry finish with a slight cinnamon note and obvious sherry character but there is also a faint creamy note in the background. |
| Comment: | Quite Simply Stunning! |
