BIMBER - Apogée XII - 12 years old - Ex Bourbon Cask - Bottled 2021 - 46.30% ABV
The Bimber Distillery, located in the heart of London, England, is a key reference in the production of exceptional handcrafted Single Malt whiskies. Founded by whisky enthusiasts Ewelina Chruszczyk and Dairusz Plazewski, this distillery aims to create a whisky with a unique character by relying on rare and rigorous traditional production methods. All the barley used comes from a single farm, thus ensuring optimal quality and traceability. The barley is hand-malted on the floor, then manually ground, and slowly fermented for seven days in wooden vats handcrafted in a local cooperage. Distillation is carried out in small copper pot stills heated by direct fire, a process that fully preserves the aromas. The spirit patiently matures in carefully selected casks before being blended and bottled on site, guaranteeing uncompromising freshness and authenticity. The first casks were filled on May 26, 2016, and the first limited edition, consisting of 1000 hand-numbered bottles, sold out in just three hours in September 2019. Since 2020, Bimber has expanded its range by offering a variety of refined and innovative Single Malt whiskies.
Apogée XII is a prestigious selection of Single Malt whiskies from the renowned Highlands and Speyside regions. These whiskies were aged for 12 years before being blended and then finished in exclusive Bimber distillery casks, giving this cuvée exceptional aromatic richness and perfect balance.
