We’ve managed to get our hands on one of Corowa’s most exciting single malts yet. "The Dreaded Drop" is a special release of the best single cask in the Corowa Warehouse, selected by Master Distiller Beau Schilg. Volume 1 is a peated whisky matured in a single Chardonnay cask, and without travelling to the distillery, the only place you can taste this dram is at Whisky Loot.

Tasting notes

Nose

Opens up with a rush of beautiful spicy-oak aromas: star anise, rich vanilla bean, slightly charred wood and buttered brioche toast. There’s a faint hint of barbecue charcoal.

Taste

The palate is thick and full bodied, with a drying hickory flavour emerging first, followed by toasted marshmallow, burnt toffee, fragrant sandalwood and a touch of elegant wood ash.

Finish

Long, turning peppery and spicy, with lingering flavours of dark caramel, bittersweet dark chocolate, drying leather, buttery chardonnay and yeasty bread.

Unapologetically unrefined with unique aftertaste

Dark coppery colour. Has an initial nose that reminds you of a garage or workshop - petrol, leather, wood - then opens into lemon and nutmeg. Oily texture with decent burn. Initial oak and spice flavour, with a unique sour, woody aftertaste like licking a Chardonnay barrel. Opens nicely after breathing or adding a few drops of water.

Very Tasty Dram!

I like a whisky that can stand on its own & this one does just that!

Sip it neat and sit back as the different flavor profiles come thru.

love the peppery & spicy finish!

Smokey

Added a few drops of water and the change from the original taste changed from good to great (for me at least)
