Chain Pier 7 Year Old 2019 Milroy's Vintage Reserve 56.7% 70cl

Extraordinarily rare whisky from one of Scotland’s smallest and closed makers, Chain Pier. Aged for seven years in a red wine barrique (although we suspect it’s an Australian tawny-style fortified Shiraz cask), it’s bursting with jammy red fruit and dense baking spice notes. Edinburgh meets Oz in truly one of the rarest single malts we’ve ever bottled.

説明

Chain Pier 7 Year Old 2019 Milroy's Vintage Reserve 56.7% 70cl

Enchanting for its scarcity and sheer quality, this breathtakingly unusual single malt is overflowing with charm and personality. Chain Pier might have been in production for only a year, but the tiny Edinburgh distillery is highly prized indeed. It filled just 39 casks in its short lifetime, before its stills fell silent for good in November 2019. We’ve got one of these rarities right here. Bold, intense and vibrant, our Australian red wine barrique crafted whisky which showcases how expressive Chain Pier can be. A remarkable time capsule of flavour, never to be repeated.

Why We Chose It

Simply: this is the best Chain Pier we've seen. We were expecting red wine maturation, but we believe it was an Australian tawny-style fortified Shiraz cask. Exceptionally rare because so few casks were ever filled, aged in highly unusual wood. As far as we know it's the only cask like it in the world. Plus, Chain Pier is one of the only truly affordable closed Scotch whisky distilleries. It’s a very wintery, cosy dram with its dried fruit and rich nutty notes – perfect for this time of year. Imagine Australian Christmas meets Edinburgh Hogmanay, all in one glass.

Milroy’s Tasting Notes

Nose

Immediately decadent and inviting, notes of hedgerow berries, sticky toffee pudding, dark chocolate and Jamaican ginger cake leap from the tasting glass. With time its elegance emerges, with intricate tea, cinnamon and icing sugar elements coming through. Maple syrup-coated waffles, granola, honeycomb and even subtle roast meat aromas add complexity. 

Palate

There’s an initial sharpness from the berries, before the vibrance is matched by jam doughnuts, cinnamon custard, flapjacks and iced Danish pastries. Cream-smothered strawberries, silken milk chocolate and profiteroles continue the decadence, before pecans, almonds, cocoa nibs and a subtle earthiness contribute depth. 

Finish

Medium length with lingering baking spice and alluring caramel notes.
