Cask Giveth, Cask Taketh

Four words for you this week: Spanish Oloroso Sherry Butts. Just part of the beauty that goes into the artfully crafted Aberlour A'bunadh we are tasting this week on this Cask Chasers Podcast. Casks play such an important role in the maturation and character of a whisky. The push and pull interaction between whisky and wood is like a brush to canvas creating the flavor profile as unique as the cask around it. We explore the passion and art poured out from the Coopers and in to your favorite dram. Plus, we dispel the thought that tasting notes are the only good way to enjoy a good whisky. Sometimes it's more about enjoying the experience and appreciating the labor of love that goes into it.
