Product details
Single Cask Nation Williamson 12 Year Old Cask #191652 is an independently bottled Islay single malt selected by Single Cask Nation, the independent bottling arm founded by the Jewish Whisky Company. “Williamson” is a traditional industry pseudonym associated with undisclosed Laphroaig single malt, referencing Bessie Williamson, the influential figure whose legacy is closely connected with the producer. This 12-year-old expression comes from a single cask and was selected for its distinctive character, offering an individual interpretation of mature Islay malt. Presented at natural colour and without chill filtration, the release allows the character developed through extended maturation to remain at the forefront, bringing together coastal influence, citrus, vanilla, oak, and the robust character associated with Islay single malts.
The nose combines coastal peat character with lemon zest, green apple, vanilla cream, sea spray, iodine, honey, subtle tropical fruit, and fresh oak. The palate is rich and oily, with sweet malt, grilled citrus, vanilla, salted caramel, orchard fruit, cracked pepper, and maritime salinity creating a full-bodied texture. The finish is long and warming, with lingering citrus oils, sea salt, vanilla, white pepper, soft ash, and gentle oak spice, offering a layered progression from bright citrus and fruit to deeper maritime and oak notes.
