The Lost Distillery Company - Jericho Archivist Selection, 46% 70cl Gift Tin

William Smith established the distillery in 1822, in a location that was perfect for small scale whisky production. In the 1870’s sherry casks became increasingly popular in the whisky industry – evolving from a means of transporting spirit, towards a technique of maturing whisky for those who could afford to buy it. In 1870 sherry matured whisky from Jericho was advertised as a drink for the discerning gentleman traveller. On the Nose: Cooked berries, figs, cinnamon and a hint of vanilla provides a wonderfully complex nose. Palate: Dried fruit like raisins and candied ginger, make way for malty notes and hints of basil leaf. The Finish: White pepper and cedar, with a final touch of blueberry finally gives way for a uniquely old-style whisky taste. A marriage of 100% aged Single Malt Scotch Whiskies, not chill filtered. A modern interpretation of the legendary Jericho Distillery
