Three Ships Whisky is a renowned South African whisky brand, produced at the James Sedgwick Distillery in Wellington, Western Cape. The distillery, which started in 1886, is unique for producing both malt and grain whiskies at the same location. Owned by Distell, a leading South African brewing and beverage company, Three Ships showcases a range of blended and single malt whiskies.
The Three Ships 5 Year Old Premium Select, thanks to its complex flavour profile and balanced character, is particularly recommended as a versatile accompaniment to various foods, especially cheese.
Nose:
You can expect a rich aromatic profile with robust smoke reminiscent of Islay whiskies. This blends seamlessly with notes of fruit, crisp oak, and shortbread.
Palate:
The palate features ripe pears and a background spiciness, coupled with a powerful peatiness that fills the mouth. The flavours are bold and robust, enhanced by hints of nutty fruitcake, cherries, and ginger.
Finish:
The finish of this whisky is long and lingering, characterized by clean, fresh peaty fruit and warm spices, creating a memorable aftertaste.
