Raasay Na Sia 5 Year Old Single Cask 19/544 Un-peated Chinkapin (2024) 70cl
This single malt from the Raasay distillery joins the first instalment of its Na Sia Through the Ages Series. The collection breaks down the unique six-cask recipe used by the distillery to create its classic Isle of Raasay Single Malt – in which peated and unpeated spirit are matured separately in a selection of American rye, chinkapin oak, and Bordeaux red wine casks before blending. With Na Sia, we get to try each of these six parts individually! Here we have a five-year-old unpeated single malt, matured in a chinkapin oak cask and bottled at cask strength.
Chinkapin Oak is a relatively rare wood, making this bottling all the more special. The oak for these casks was sourced from the US, it was highly charred, giving the spirit the gorgeous colour.
Official Tasting NotesThe fresh charring of the cask brings a rich colour and flavour early on in the maturation process, and the high toast caramelises the natural sugars in the wood. Expect sweet toffee and butterscotch on the nose, with vibrant dark fruit flavours and deep, rich colours at a young age.70cl
