caperdonich 21 peated

Caperdonich 21 Peated | 10% OFF | Code: BOTW | *Valid from Tuesday, Feb 28th – Tuesday, Mar 7th

Released by Chivas Brothers as part of the Secret Speyside collection, Caperdonich 21 Peated is an elegant 21-year-old single malt and a star among its peers. Secret Speyside focuses on whisky from lesser-known or lost Scottish distilleries from the Speyside region. There are four in the series – Caperdonich, Longmorn, Glen Keith and Braes of Glenlivet – each representing a different aspect of the Speyside whisky character.

Caperdonich is the largest of the quartet, with six bottles released from this demolished and never-to-return Speyside distillery. Closed since 2002 and completely destroyed in 2011, any remaining stock is hugely popular and sought after.

Chivas Brothers say they chose this Caperdonich 21 peated variant as it offers a gorgeous combination of fruit and smoke and also plugs directly into the Chivas personality. Bottled at 48%, the malt was matured in ex-bourbon for its full duration and captures tons of citrus, liquorice and burnt embers from its more than two decades in oak.

The Secret Speyside is a fantastic collection, designed to turn heads and offer back stories that entirely capture the imagination. This bottle is a perfect entry point to the series.
