SILD “Crannog” Single Malt Whisky 48% – The Spirit of the North Sea
With SILD "Crannog" Single Malt Whisky, you're bringing an unparalleled rarity to your glass. This strictly limited specialty is made from brewing barley and spring water from the island of Sylt and matures on the historic cutter "GRET PALUCCA" in its home port of List. Uniquely, this whisky is the only one in the world to be stored directly on a ship. The constant rocking, the salty North Sea air, and the harsh climate give it its unmistakable character.
Aroma that captures the sea
Crannog delights with its luminous amber hue and a multifaceted, maritime aroma: smoky notes mingle with vanilla, malt, and iodine, while hints of seaweed and white pepper evoke a fresh sea breeze. On the palate, it reveals a harmonious blend of peaty depth, subtle sweetness, and delicate bitterness. The finish is long, pleasantly peaty, and impressively complex.
The best of tradition and nature
Traditionally named after the Gaelic "crannogs"—wooden pilings to which ships were once moored—the whisky is matured in small 100-liter wooden casks. The constant movement of the sea ensures a perfect connection between the whisky and the wood, contributing to its unique aroma.
Culinary tip:
The best way to enjoy this exceptional single malt is neat, at a temperature just below room temperature (around 14°C). This allows it to fully develop its complex bouquet and remain a true delight for every whisky lover.
