Silkie Dark Cask Strength
Like the standard 46% bottling, this release of the Dark Silkie offers all that same remarkable smoothness, velvety nature, and rich, fruity flavours, but now dialled up to cask strength! Non-chill filtered and bottled at 64.39%, the additional ABV adds some soft and suppl tropical sweetness, stewed plum, pipe tobacco and a deep velvety mouthfeel, balancing the dry spicy smoke. Limited to just 252 bottles released!
