The Whistler Irish Whiskey Releases Madeira Collaboration
Introducing The Whistler 21 YO Madeira Justino’s Collaboration Set, a special collaborative bottling representing the passing of time.
The Whistler 21 Year Old Single Malt Madeira Finish has been matured in Bourbon Barrels for a minimum of 20 Years, and finished for 18 months in two unique single casks that previously held Justino’s Madeira Malvasia fortified wine.
This bottling tells the story of the passing of time with the whiskey representing the sun. On the back label it states that this whiskey has been aged no less than 7,665 sun rises and sunsets.
The 500ml whiskey is bottled at 54.5% ABV, is non-chill filtered and at natural colour.
Justino's 20 Year Old Madeira Malvasia is a bottling of two 20 year old Malvasia Madeira casks made from Quercus Robur French Oak, which originally held cognac. These Madeiras use the Malvasia De São Jorge grape.
In this tale of the passing of time the Madeira represents the moon and has been aged for no less that 260 astro moon cycles.
Two 20yo Malvasia Madeira casks were selected, cask 26 and 27. These casks were originally cognac casks with a volume of 350ltrs and made from Quercus Robur French Oak.
Harvested in 1999, these Madeiras use the Malvasia De São Jorge (North Coast) grape, and are aged using the ‘Canteiro’ method.
The set is priced at €999.95.
