About this bottle

Back with Dobson's Distillery, the Empire 8 cask strength whisky is new and exciting. Triple-distilled in an Irish-style, the whisky then sits in stainless-steel with oak slabs for four months, before being matured in a shiraz cask for two years, a madeira cask for two years, and a chardonnay cask for two years. Made with Baird's malt, supposedly the name comes from the number 8 being a lucky number in China.

Wee dram man 4.0

I found this one delightful. Nice long sweet notes of toffee and vanilla. A faint smokey after taste. Where can i buy a bottle?

Jake Pay 1.0

Easily the worst whisky I have ever tried. Tasted like saccharine.
