Bimber Apogee XII 12 Year Old 70cl

Apogee XII from the Bimber team in London is created using a blend of single malts from Speyside and the Highlands, aged for at least 12 years. After blending, the whisky was given an extra rest in ex-bourbon casks that had also previously been used to mature Bimber's very own single malt whisky. An intriguing release from Bimber, a distillery that has been plenty busy impressing us with its fab range of spirits (particularly those aforementioned whiskies).

Tasting Notes

Finish : Crunchy pear and a smidge of lemon, with layers of caramel.

About Bimber

Bimber Distillery was founded by whisky lovers, with a mission to produce high-quality single malt whisky with character, using traditional methods that are rarely seen today.

The journey begins at their single farm, where 100% of their barley is grown. It is then traditionally floor malted, hand-mashed and fermented slowly for seven days in their wooden washbacks that were hand-made at their own cooperage. Bimber uses direct fire to heat the small copper pot stills, and matures the spirit in hand-selected casks. The whisky is also bottled on site.

Their hand-crafted approach to whisky production passionately combines traditional methods, expertise and commitment to quality.

Bimber’s first casks were laid down on the 26th May 2016 and they released their inaugural single malt whisky (The First) three years later in September of 2019 – the limited release of 1,000 hand numbered bottles sold out in 3 hours. Bimber will be releasing a wide range of new single malt whiskies – all with their trademark accessible, fruit forward character.
