Nomad Outland Whisky, 70 cl

Product Information

Finish: The sweet fruit and honey notes refine as you swallow, providing a long, chewy vanilla/oak/raisin finish and just a faint hint of smoke. The overall mouth feel is a smooth, medium- to full-bodied whisky with both a surprising brightness and surprising sweetness. Nomad Outland Whisky is an unusual whisky; it is produced and aged for a certain amount of time in Scotland before being shipped top Jerez in Spain for a further period of ageing. Therefore it cannot be called Scotch Whisky and the producers have come up with the term Outland Whisky. Most Scotch Whisky is aged in sherry cask and this brand is owned by Gonzalez Byass, so perhaps this is not such quite a surprising synergy after all.

Whiskey Review: Nomad Outland - The Whiskey Wash

Sherry butt aging/finishing has been the exception when it comes to blended Scotch, although it is not unheard of. There are a few notable examples of the style: Not technically a Scotch whisky (since the final barrel aging and bottling takes place outside of Scotland), Nomad Outland is a blend of around 30 malt and grain whiskies from the Speyside region of Scotland (where Macallan, The Glenlivet, Aberlour and other classics are based). They age in ex-bourbon casks in northern Scotland between two and five years, then transfer to ex-Oloroso sherry casks for three more years. And then the blend travels to Jerez, Spain (sherry’s ancestral home) to rest another year in very freshly seasoned ex-Pedro Ximénez casks in the Nomad cellars of the González Byass wineries.Whiskybase B.V. is the Dutch private limited liability company, having its statutory seat in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and its office at Zwaanshals 530, 3035 KS Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

It’s not just the soaking wet freshness of the recently dumped sherry that adds magic to the juice — Spain’s increased heat and humidity means the whisky is spending more time getting absorbed into and influenced by the sherry-soaked oak than it does in chilly Scotland.

In 2001, Grant’s Sherry Cask Finish was the first sherry-finished Scotch blend released by a major whisky company. The expression was based on the same whiskies used in the Grant’s Family Reserve. After blending, the whisky was placed in Oloroso sherry butts and aged for an additional four months before being released. This time, the eight-year-old blend is finished in Ilegal Mezcal casks (Bacardi owns a minority stake in Ilegal). While you might assume this would bring a great deal of smoke to the palate, it's really only a wisp that curls around other flavors like caramel, butterscotch, and bright citrus. Overall, this is a nice sipping whisky that would also work quite well in a simple drink like a highball.

Nose: The aroma is warm but not hot or in your face, emphasizing oak, malted grain, and just a hint of dried raisin and fresh bread toward the end. Here the sherry influences are subtle but inviting.

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect. The finish is long, refined, and complex, and features a succession of sweet dried fruit notes set against a creamy texture highlighted by hints of walnut and tropical spice. This is an excellent, very approachable blended whisky, showing good integration and a smoothness and a degree of complexity that belies its relatively young age. It would make a superb after dinner dram, yet could equally accompany a rich bisque or a spicy entree. Served over ice or with a bit of water it would serve just as well as an aperitif. Conclusion: Unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise, your use of and membership to the Service are exclusively governed by Dutch law. We shall first try to settle any dispute over a dram of whisky. Disputes that cannot be settled over multiple drams of whisky shall be solely submitted to the court of Amsterdam, The Netherlands unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise.

The bourbon cask influences are evident in the distinctive spice and vanilla flavors, but act as a nice compliment to the sherry finish notes. The two sherries offset each other nicely, adding nuts and dried fruit notes from the Oloroso and the sweet, golden raisin notes of the PX. That sweetness is nicely balanced and well integrated, and is free of the cloying, syrupy sweetness that can sometimes accompany PX finishes. The alcohol is smooth with a satisfying warmth, and is reminiscent of a fine Spanish brandy. The combination of the rich, sweet sherry influences and the spice-and-honey notes from the oak aging give the impression not unlike sipping a Manhattan or perhaps some sort of whisky liqueur. The slight bite of spice and smoke means this whisky also pairs beautifully with dark, full-bodied cigars. On the palate there is a marked crème brûlée-like creaminess with the pronounced, oily, viscous mouth weight that is typically associated with heavily sherried whiskies. An unmistakable but restrained sweetness grows stronger on the palate with pronounced golden raisin and dried stone fruit flavors accompanied by caramel notes. There are also noticeable walnut and marzipan elements.
