About this bottle
Eifel's German 8 Year Single Malt, 2021 Edition, is aged first in ex-Bordeaux American oak casks before a second maturation in first- and second-fill cream sherry casks. That two-stage cask program is the defining feature of this single malt from the Eifel region of Germany, and it's bottled at 46% ABV. Expect the sherry cask to bring dried fruit and a touch of nutty richness, with the Bordeaux oak underneath contributing red-fruit and spice undertones rather than classic bourbon-cask vanilla. It suits single malt drinkers curious about German whisky's sherry-forward, non-Scotch take on the category.
How to drink Eifel German 8 Year Single Malt
Drink it neat or with a few drops of water to open up the sherry cask's dried-fruit character. Its cask profile is close enough to a sherried Scotch that it works as a substitute in a Rob Roy if you want to try it stirred.
