Around 8500 bottles make up the 2018 Inchgower, which also marks the debut of the distillery as a Special Release. Known as the “Manzanilla of Speysideâ€?it’s one of Diageo’s workhorses, quietly producing a nutty, briny spirit that’s a key part of Bell’s blends. Matured exclusively in refill American oak hogsheads to retain all of the waxy granny smith character of the spirit, it’s a very dry, savoury and nutty malt with subtle green apple fruits. This is all about the texture and the aroma of the spirit with minimal oak input. Diageo releases have been pretty much the only generally available bottlings from Inchgower, which is otherwise marketed by independents. It’s been said that less than one percent of the total production is bottled as a single malt, so examples of this ilk are a rare treat indeed. Super limited.
