The Single Cask releases charity bottling
Independent bottler The Single Cask has released a 10-year-old Teaninich single malt to support The Drinks Trust.
Now available on the company's website, the limited edition bottling is priced at £79 (US$104), with all proceeds going to support The Drinks Trust, a charity dedicated to drinks and hospitality workers. Jan Damen, general manager at The Single Cask, said: “Charities like The Drinks Trust offer outstanding support to our industry. We are very proud of our collaboration and delighted to help wherever we can. We love working with inspiring people doing good for the drinks industry and that’s exactly what The Drinks Trust does. "The Single Cask bottles only exciting and entertaining whiskies worth talking about, and this ultra-rare release is definitely worth talking about.” The 10-year-old Teaninich single malt was distilled in 2014 and finished in a Madeira wine barrel. The expression is released under The Single Cask's 'playful' mood category and is limited to 54 bottles, offered at 57.5% ABV. The whisky was chosen by The Single Cask's expert team of 'Taste Masters' and offers 'fresh, fruity passion fruit and honey syrup' aromas on the nose, followed by 'sweet blossom honey, blood orange, delicate spice and crème brûlée' on the palate. Ross Carter, CEO of The Drinks Trust, added: “Our collaborations with donors, including The Single Cask, are rapidly evolving and enabling the delivery of crucial funds and services to our beneficiaries facing hardship. These partnerships also assist businesses in achieving their corporate social responsibility (CSR) goals, benefiting the entire industry and raising the charity's profile, allowing us to extend our reach and impact even further. We couldn’t be more grateful to The Single Cask team for their generous support.” The Single Cask recently relaunched the brand, categorising all 3,000 casks in its Glenrothes-based warehouse into five easily approachable whisky flavour moods: cheerful, playful, bold, curious and easy-going.
