SPICE KING welcomes the curious with a succulently sweet start before being drawn in by its many complexities. The initial sweetness is juxtaposed with a savoury maritime brashness before the layers of spice unfold.
Many flavours can be described as ‘spicy’ and Wemyss Malts secret recipe combines multiple regions of single malts to create a blended malt that is the king of spicy whisky. A cereal taste like nutty granola coated in ginger syrup and a delicate astringency from the cask maturation provides depth and balance.
Gentle peat smoke makes its presence known by turning up the volume on the spicy flavours whilst adding a punchy and peppery finish.
