130 Litre Single Pot Still Cream Sherry Cask 63%
130 Litre Single Pot Still Cream Sherry Cask (Great Northern Distillery New Make)
These small 130L casks have been cut down from larger Butts that were used to mature cream sherry. They have a lot more activity within the wood than standard casks, making them suitable for accelerated ageing and early bottling.
Each cask has been filled recently with Triple Distilled Single Pot Still spirit from the Great Northern Distillery.
Great Northern Distillery source Irish barley which is malted in Ireland. The grains are wet milled, breaking open the grains to form a grist. Mashing is when this grist is mixed with hot water in the lauter tun which then turns the starch into a sugary liquid called wort. The wort is then converted into a beer-like liquid once yeast is added. The yeast converts the sugar into alcohol and it's now called wash. The wash is then double distilled in Great Northern’s giant copper pot stills. The spirit is put into cask at 63% abv and on this occasion will be casked in a first fill American Bourbon barrel.
