Product Information
Floral & Fruity Today the Dragon (in Welsh, Y Ddraig) is the proud national flag of Wales. This fiery creature is close to our hearts. It is thought that the ancient Welsh kings were using the dragon as a royal emblem by the early 5th century AD. In this they followed Roman cohorts that carried hollow metal 'draco' standards, through which the wind howled, to instill fear in their foes. The Making of Legend Our unique copper stills are charged with a fermented barley 'wash'. This is distilled to produce a flavourful spirit of extraordinary strength and purity which is married with water from the Brecon Beacons before maturing in the finest oak casks. Penderyn Legend is matured in specially reserved ex-bourbon casks made from American Oak, before receiving a further maturation in oak barriques that have previously held Madeira wine, to develop a harmonious single malt whisky with a subtle but sophisticated character and soft golden hues. This great all-rounder is the essential expression of the legendary Penderyn house style and has all the richness of flavour and fruitiness that Penderyn is famous for world-wide. Tasting Notes Aromas of fresh apples and citrus fruits intermingle with cream fudge and sultana raisins in the nose to create a complex yet fresh, clean and well-balanced whisky. In the mouth this single malt whisky is incredibly smooth, and both fresh and rich dried fruits abound. Delicate and sweet on the palate, with just a hint of bitterness to remain refreshing, then slowly this Penderyn presents a long finish leaving an aftertaste of Madeira cake and sultanas. Nose: Fresh apples, citrus fruits, cream fudge, and raisins. Palate: Rich dried fruits with a hint of bitterness. Finish: Madeira cake and sultanas
