Cask share #151 - Pedro Ximenez Sherry Cask

We have filled a 130 liter Pedro Ximenez Sherry cask of white American oak, and are now offering it as cask shares.

Pedro Ximenez is the name of a special grape which is primarily used for the production of sherry in the area around Montilla in southern Spain. The sherry is known for its deep, rounded sweetness, smoldering with raisins, dried figs, dates and dark chocolate. When the whiskey has fully matured after 5-6 years, an intense case is planned with lots of sweetness, walnuts, dark fruit, vanilla and spices.

When you buy a barrel share at Thornæs, you are automatically invited to Fadenes dag here at the distillery. Cask Day is a special day when we celebrate all the good whisky maturing in our cask warehouse. On the day there will be tastings and lots of extra info about the casks that are on the way and the whisky that is ready to be enjoyed together.

The date of the next Fadenes day will be announced on the website and in our newsletter.
