Our WhaleTale Range includes a Whisky and a XO Potstill Cape Brandy.
WhaleTale is a smooth, approachable single malt whose time in ex-bourbon barrels followed by finishing in French and American oak creates a harmonious whisky. Expect a creamy, mellow character featuring vanilla sweetness, gentle oak spice, and subtle fruit from its extended maturation journey spanning Scotland and South Africa.
Nose:
On the nose, aromas of vanilla custard and oak emerge first, layered with light caramel and faint dried fruit likely a result of the bourbon cask influence and the oak finishing.
Palate:
The palate showcases rich vanilla and creamy elements, followed by mild spice and orchard fruit notes. There’s a balanced sweetness and a soft warmth, presenting an easy-drinking profile with moderate complexity.
Finish:
The finish is smooth and gently lingering. It carries through the oak derived spice and vanilla, leaving a lightly warming, mellow aftertaste that invites another sip.
