Nomad Outland Whisky, 70 cl

Product Information

In 2001, Grant’s Sherry Cask Finish was the first sherry-finished Scotch blend released by a major whisky company. The expression was based on the same whiskies used in the Grant’s Family Reserve. After blending, the whisky was placed in Oloroso sherry butts and aged for an additional four months before being released. Our Whisky selection is made up of deliciously distilled bottles from Scotland, Ireland, America, Japan and even India. Whether you’re purchasing as a gift or looking to add something rare and special to your collection, Drink Finder’s esteemed range has a whisky with your name on it. It’s not just the soaking wet freshness of the recently dumped sherry that adds magic to the juice — Spain’s increased heat and humidity means the whisky is spending more time getting absorbed into and influenced by the sherry-soaked oak than it does in chilly Scotland.

Our Service is an online platform which provides Members with information (e.g. bottle facts, market-indices, market values and prices) on (mostly) whisky and allows Members to add information to the platform. We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products.Nose: The aroma is warm but not hot or in your face, emphasizing oak, malted grain, and just a hint of dried raisin and fresh bread toward the end. Here the sherry influences are subtle but inviting. The French spirits company, La Martiniquaise, has released its Label 5, Sherry Cask Finish Reserve Blended Scotch Whisky, 70cl, 43% ABV, in select European markets. The bourbon cask influences are evident in the distinctive spice and vanilla flavors, but act as a nice compliment to the sherry finish notes. The two sherries offset each other nicely, adding nuts and dried fruit notes from the Oloroso and the sweet, golden raisin notes of the PX. That sweetness is nicely balanced and well integrated, and is free of the cloying, syrupy sweetness that can sometimes accompany PX finishes. The alcohol is smooth with a satisfying warmth, and is reminiscent of a fine Spanish brandy.

The finish is long, refined, and complex, and features a succession of sweet dried fruit notes set against a creamy texture highlighted by hints of walnut and tropical spice. This is an excellent, very approachable blended whisky, showing good integration and a smoothness and a degree of complexity that belies its relatively young age. It would make a superb after dinner dram, yet could equally accompany a rich bisque or a spicy entree. Served over ice or with a bit of water it would serve just as well as an aperitif.

On the palate there is a marked crème brûlée-like creaminess with the pronounced, oily, viscous mouth weight that is typically associated with heavily sherried whiskies. An unmistakable but restrained sweetness grows stronger on the palate with pronounced golden raisin and dried stone fruit flavors accompanied by caramel notes. There are also noticeable walnut and marzipan elements.
