Independent Glasgow-based bottler Caskade has released Grace Notes – a limited edition whisky to celebrate 30 years of the local Celtic Connections music festival which is held every January in Glasgow.
Grace Notes was extracted from a trio of single ex-bourbon American oak casks, distilled at Teaninich Distillery, [located in the Highlands of Scotland], matured for 10 years, bottled at 48.6% alcohol by volume [97.2 proof] and is said to offer “graceful” notes of citrus, cocoa, pear and vanilla.
Only 752 individually-numbered bottles of Caskade Grace Notes are being made available – via the official Caskade site [caskadedrinks.com] and in person at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall during the Celtic Connections music festival.
A very sweet and dessert-like expression from Teaninich, still a touch spirity and feisty but this adds a little interest to the palate and to the overall enjoyment. 82/100
