Origin: United Kingdom

Distillery: Retribution Distilling Co.

This edition of Retribution English whisky was matured in a single Oloroso hogshead (cask W006), which has dialled the spirit toward rich fruit and nutty sweetness while letting the creamy new make character shine through. Maris Otter malt from Warminster Maltings replaces Laureate here, and it shows its worth, adding depth that plays brilliantly with direct-fired copper pot distillation. The release is limited to 370 bottles, filled to 53% ABV.

Retribution 3 Year Old Cask #W006 – Oloroso Cask Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Black cherries, sultanas and raspberry jam, then walnut cake, vanilla custard, malt biscuit and a touch of orange oil.

Palate: Sticky toffee pudding and dates soaked in sherry. Hazelnut praline, cocoa nibs, and Demerara follow, with cinnamon, clove and a hint of leather. The underlying spirit stays creamy and cereal-rich.

Finish: Dark chocolate, cherry stones and toasted nuts with a final waft of dried orange and sweet oak.

Distillery Information

Small-batch, high-flavour spirits are at the core of Retribution, which makes rum and gin as well as whisky. The latter is currently maturing, but weve tasted an array of new make and its bonkers how good it is already. Local ingredients are used where possible and all mashing, fermenting, distillation (direct-fired stills made to specification), and maturation occur on-site to ensure the spirits have a sense of place that is rooted in the Somerset countryside. In 2023, the brand will fill around 30 casks split between whisky and rum production, and over the coming years, Retribution will be experimenting with a variety of grains, including darker malts (kilned and roasted), yeast, and cask types. There are even plans to build a malt kiln to produce Somerset peated malt. Seriously exciting stuff.
