Penderyn Icons of Wales No. 11 - Patagonia 700 ml

Description:

On the 28th July 1865, 153 people embarked on the Mimosa, sailing for Patagonia to establish a Welsh colony and preserve their language and culture. Times were difficult, but today Patagonia has 50,000 Welsh descendants, 5000 Welsh speakers and holds annual Eisteddfodau. ‘Little Wales beyond Wales…’

Penderyn Patagonia is produced by marrying Penderyn's single malt whisky with that of La Alazana Distillery in Patagonia. This is #11 in the Icons of Wales series of bottlings, celebrating a significant person, milestone or event from Wales. It is bottled at 43% abv.

Sweet, floral and perfumed on the nose. Orchard fruits – green apples and sweet pears – vanilla, a light aroma of honey and caramel. The palate is nicely balanced. Sweet honey, apple tart and juicy pears with vanilla and light oaky notes. A mix of spices: cinnamon, peppers and a hint of cloves, together with almonds and creamy toffee. Dried fruits lingering with sweet spice at the end.
