The Lakes Whiskymaker's Editions Revelation Single Malt Whisky, 70cl
The Lakes Whiskymaker's Editions Revelation is a limited edition single malt from The Lakes Distillery in Cumbria, originally made in partnership with Selfridges. It is a deliberate step away from the sherry-led Lakes house style: an oak-led approach to maturation draws out tropical fruit and plum, and the result is light, fresh and bright.
On the nose, geranium leaf and marzipan sit with juicy plums and a hint of rose water. The palate brings tropical fruit, rose petals and honey-roasted almonds, and the finish is fruity, gently spiced and long. At 47% Alc., it works neat, and a drop of water brings out the plum and tropical fruit.
It is non-chill filtered, natural in colour, and one of 763 individually numbered bottles. In our view it is a clear example of what the Whiskymaker's Editions are for: showing a side of The Lakes you would not find in the core range.
The Lakes Distillery sits near Bassenthwaite Lake in the Lake District National Park and began distilling in 2014.
