Destilerías Acha 'Ibar' 8-year Single Malt Whisky
Destilerías Acha 'Ibar' 8-year Single Malt Whisky
This is the only true Basque Country whisky in existence. Crafted from local barley, lightly roasted with the smoke of local heather roots. After slow distillation in Acha's century-old copper pot still (one of the oldest functioning stills in Europe), the final cut is aged for 8 years in toasted Iberian oak casks. Non-chill filtered, cut to bottle strength with filtered water from the Nervión River, and bottled with no coloring or additives.
Classic single malt profile on par with many lighter Scotch whiskys, but with a distinctly Basque identity due to the Iberian oak and the use of local heather roots, which are more sustainable than peat and offer a more subtle smoke tone. Bright and punchy, with a touch of salinity and nuttiness, and toasty grip and depth smoothed out by the 8 years in barrel. A unique offering to the world of single malt whisky and a must-try for any spirits aficianado.
