This single malt whisky was crafted in ex-red wine casks that have been shaved, toasted and re-charred and filled with our rare peated new make spirit. The STR technique was developed by the late Dr. Jim Swan, who was our consultant and friend and an expert in hot climate maturation. This process enables the casks to release rich flavours and red fruit notes.
The maturation period is mentioned in the front label.
Israel’s 300 sunny days in an average year and the Mediterranean climate are our greatest advantage. Hot climate maturation means that our whisky ages rapidly, yet significantly gracefully. Whisky made in warmer weather takes on specific terroir which yields unique flavours that somewhat differ from their Old-World counterparts. Our methods, technique and equipment carry on centuries-old knowledge and we keep the tradition of minimum three years of aging.

Aroma: Sea breeze, gentle saltiness, stroke of varnish , gingerbread rich in cloves and all spice, hints of freshly cut hay.
