A new entrant onto the South African whisky scene, produced with 100% local grain and matured in ex-bourbon for 5 years before being finished in French oak casks. The product is bottled at Doña Distillery in Cape Town and is the first of many that the team plan to produce over the coming years. The distiller, Danielle Schoeman, has started distilling and aging their own grain whisky, but for this release, they are sourcing, blending and aging to deliver the taste profile they are aiming for. The mermaid logo represents the approach of how the team intends to marry the tradition of whisky with a new look and innovation.
Nose: Vanilla and roasted oak.
