The Lakes Whiskymaker's Reserve No.6 | 700ML

The Lakes Whiskymaker's Reserve series returns for a sixth edition! No.6 is matured in a combination of Spanish and American oak casks seasoned with oloroso, Pedro Ximénez sherry, and red wine. This release places more of a focus on accentuating notes of wood spice than previous releases, but that's not to say there isn't a generous helping of juicy red fruit notes to be found in this English single malt.

The Lakes Whiskymaker's Reserve No.6 | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Juicy winey red fruit, plump raisins, and sticky dates, as well as a tart, hibiscus-like floral undertone.

Palate: Smooth and buttery oak, more red fruit, alongside raisins, sultanas, and sticky notes of runny honey.

Finish: A fragrant incense note, with lingering drying oak spice.

Distillery Information

Cumbria is home to the Lakes District and, consequently, the Lakes Distillery. It was founded in 2011 by Paul Currie, who you may know as one of the co-founders of the Isle of Arran Distillery. You'll find the distillery in a Lake District national park within a painstakingly renovated 160-year-old farmstead on the banks of the River Derwent. Because of said location, they can’t construct any additional buildings, so they have a very impressive distillery-in-a-room set-up to distil their spirits.
