Pig's Nose Blended Scotch Whisky 70 cl

Product Information

The first step in the distillation process for making Pig’s Nose Whiskey is milling, which is when malted barley grains are passed between steel rollers so they can be crushed into small bits and flakes. This preparation method helps release essential enzymes from within the grain, allowing them to interact with malts during conversion. Produced in specially selected first-fill oak casks, this is a smooth blended scotch that comes from blending Speyside, Islay and Lowland malts with gentle grain whiskies and aging for five years. Pigs Nose Scotch is a type of whisky made from malted barley, aged in ex-bourbon barrels and then blended with peated malt. The spirit has a sweet and smoky flavor, reminiscent of a campfire or even a warm piece of coal. This combination makes for a unique style of whisky that stands out – especially among other whisky brands.

The name “Pig’s Nose” comes from an old Scottish folktale which tells the story of how the whiskey came to be known as such; an old farmer had bought some barrels of whisky that were named after pigs! As legend goes, when the old farmer sampled his own whiskey it reminded him of the smell of a pig’s snout – thus becoming known as ‘pigs nose’.Colour: a middle-of-the-road honey-amber. On the nose: pretty lively, actually. Dominated by a vanilla, light-sugared sweetness and heavy notes of malted barley. Millionaire shortbread. Banana muffins. Pigs Nose whiskey is a blended Scotch whiskey, created and produced by the Cardhu Distillery in Scotland. It has been around for over 130 years and continues to be popular among whisky aficionados. B and B-: Good and above average. The best of the mass market whiskeys fit in this category, as do the bulk of the premium brands. A B- is three stars. Next up: distillation! During this stage of production, wash accumulates along with ferments that ought to be removed judiciously as not all ferments are good for whiskeys like Pig’s Nose; some impart unpleasant flavors while others diminish product quality over time if left too long in their raw distilled form. Distillers must therefore know precisely what needs to go versus what should stay behind after each round of separating out undesired ferments through carefully monitored condensation processes within specialized stilling apparatus called pot stills or Coffey stills (also referred to as “column or continuous stills”).

Denne blended Scotch Whisky er kaldet Pigs Nose. Det skyldes at den er utroligt blød og rund, og da man i Skotland har en talemåde der lyder ”as smooth as a pig’s nose”, har man det helt ideelle navn. Den er sammensat af single malt fra Speyside, Lowlands og Islay, derefter tilsættes en mild og fin grain whisky. Alle whiskykomponenterne lagres på first-fill bourbonfade, så man kan forvente karamel og vanilje i smagen. Pigs Nose Blended Scotch Whisky In the mouth: a weirdly brandy-like note at first, and not the good stuff, but once you get over that little gatepost and into the pig-sty it tastes like whisky again. Not much going on, if I’m honest: simple flavours, a little barley, some sweetness, but too little to speak of. It’s very flat. After some persistence it’s charms start to show through: a viscous creaminess materialises (from the grain whisky?) and then there is quite a nice bit of yeasty-malty action. Some gentle woody spice. In fact, once you get used to it, it’s not all that bad. However, I’d say there’s not much life in this pig. I’d much prefer a bacon sandwich!
