Wire Works Moscatel Finish Single Malt Whisky, 53.6%

Moscatel, a sweet fortified wine from the Douro Valley region of Portugal, made from its namesake grape variety. Once the wine achieves the desired level of sweetness during fermentation, grape brandy spirit is introduced to halt further progress. This mixture, along with the grape skins, is allowed to meld for at least three months, enhancing flavour absorption. Following this, the wine undergoes ageing in oak casks for a minimum of 18 months.
